SD 4000 bracelet problem

[johnswatch]

Hello,

I've got an M series SD which has started giving me some strap troubles.

Thehinge on the two folding pressed steel deployant things is rubbing my arm although the strap is just the right fit. I went camping last week and came back with a raw patch where the hinge irritated my wrist.

In a bid to adjust it I made a few adjustments to the curve of the folders and now the clasp won't grip at all without the keeper folder over.

How do I fix this?

I have to say the bracelet on the Subs and SD is of a faily poor quality and if I can't get it adjusted right then I'll have to re-think the whole purchase. A nato is nice but wouldn't go with a suit....


Any help is greatly appreciated.

John
