Gap between case and endlinks
New to forum. I just purchased a 93150 with 501b end links for a 5513. There is large gap between where case meets the end links. Is this normal or perhaps end link issue. Any help would be great.
Thank You |

Looks like the endlinks are on the wrong way around. The curved edge should meet the case.

I am finding it very difficult to take this serious...
 I will give you the benefit of the doubt, and concur with what Adam said

I'm thinking of putting a 93150 on my 5512, should I use 580 end links? Thanks. |

I think your bracelet is defective, and you should notify the seller immediately.

Tough to tell from the pictures but it looks like the end link is backwards as Adam points out. Here is what it should look like.
I'm not sure it's even possible to put it on backwards but I can check when I get home. |

Also, you might have the wrong end pieces. I believe the 501s are for sapphire models. Acrylic Subs need 580s. (Double-check, of course.)

"Hilarious"??
If it IS, in fact, an attempt at a joke, and while I get the set-up, come on, guys! There's nothing clever, or witty about it all. I mean...this is "watch humor" at its lamest. |

Nothing wrong with the endllinks except that they are on the wrong side...
If you swap them side-to-side they will fit perfectly..

Wearing it this way will keep the ref and serial number crisp and sharp!

I think I see what the problem is. The OP got the endlinks switched. The one installed at 6-o'clock is the one that should go at 12-o'clock, and viceversa. That should solve the gap problem, I think...

I think I got my end links on the right way, but I'm having a different problem. I set my watch for noon, but when I wear it, it says it's 6:30. Do I need to send it in for a service?

Watched is good to go! 501b's worked fine. I love all the sarcasm a simple reply "on backwards" would have sufficed. Thanks to those who offered good advice, those who took time out to reply or post a picture just to be rude, find something better to do than embarrass yourself.
Thank You! |
