I can fit my pinky all the way to the webbing while wearing my Sub... I've gotta force it, but I can also rotate the watch all the way around in either direction.

Same - well stated.
Any tighter and it can become too tight when your wrist swells sometimes, like being on your feet at a car show all day.

I like my bracelet to be loose enough to where you can see daylight at the bottom if you extend your wrist forward making a fist, and then if you open your hand, the skin just touches the metal.

I play keyboards and guitar, I always take my watch off when I play.

FWIW I have the bracelet adjusted to admit the pinky, and I never use the Easylink feature.

I have always thought it was the other way, when you wear it tight it would wears out faster

Good to know as I like it a little tight
