Sizing the SubC

I'm curious to hear what others have experienced in terms of sizing their SubC. I think I will need either 1 or 2 links removed. With the clasp being as large as it is, I'm curious what the best order for removing links would be.

I assume the first link removal would come from the longer, 12 o'clock side of the bracelet...but what about the second link? Should that come from the same side, or should I go to the shorter, 6 o'clock side for link 2.

Any thoughts from the masses?

I like to have the shorter side on 6 o clock, and the longer part of the bracelet at 12.

My AD took out 2 links from the 12 o'clock side and it's perfect!

More links on the 12 side of the watch case than on the 6 part. :)

My wrist size is 6.5" and my Sub-C fits perfectly with this link set-up, should also fit perfect over a wetsuit when I extend the Glidelock:
