Half-link for DSSD ?

[116680]

Hello all,

I have been trying to get the exact fit on my Deepsea, and have concluded that having 4.5 links on the 6 o'clock side would be great.

The clasp is off centre with 4, and uncomfortable. With 5, the fit is perfect during normal temperature but I either need to have no inwards adjustment on the glidelock (with all links on the 12 o'clock side), or very limited (2 click's) outwards adjustment with one link removed from the 12 o'clock side. It seems a shame to lose the functionality of the glidelock given what a wonderful feature that it. [note: I have already removed the diver's extension]

I 'phoned my AD and he said that he checked with Rolex and they don't do a half-link for the Deepsea. Fair enough. Would a half-link from a 116610 fit, I ask ? He said no, but I thought I'd check with the forum as I thought that whilst the lug width of the Deepsea is wider at 21mm, actually it tapers down to the same as a SubC so a SubC half-link should work fine.

Can anyone confirm (and, even better, post a pic for me to show the AD) ?
