What size wrist would I be.

I do not have a tape to measure and I was curious. Every Rolex I have bought they fit me pretty much perfect. Sometimes I need to adjust the easy clasp link if I had some swelling in my wrist. What wrist size would that most likely make me ?

Trying to remember if I remove one or two link. My wrist measures 7.25”
(I think two)

My guess would be around 8” if u are not removing any link

Just use a string to wrap around the wrist, then measure the string with a ruler

I’m like a 7 to 7.25 with the ez link in I have one full link out. So if you can wear it with no links taken out I would think you would be approx 7.75. But that’s just me guesstimating based on my wrist.

It makes you, in need of a tape measure, mate!

You could, wrap a piece of string/paper around your wrist, mark it at the appropriate tension/fit. Then measure the result. (if you have a rule, that is!)

I stand corrected.
I guess I only removed one link.
So I would re-estimate ur wrist to be about 7.6-7.7”
