Sea dweller Deepsea how many links

Hi Folks

Just picked up a new blue paying the premium to a reseller (these are impossible to source in the UK from registered dealers)

The experience was good despite the premium price, and surprisingly the watch fitted perfectly out the box, however I would have expected a couple of spare links ? (I will be using this for diving and may need more expansion than the others clasps).

Anyone any idea how many links there should be I have 5 full and the bracelet joining link at the 6 o'clock and 6 before the expander at the 12 side. Anyone know if this seems correct?

Yes that's correct.
Same as mine I bought in April from a AD in Germany.

this is why there were no spare links

rolex does not provide extra links with new watches, the loose links some have are simply ones that have been removed from the original
