Thank you. I like the oyster. It makes the watch look more substantial, and more sporty, so more reminiscent of Tennis.

Very nice Kat. Congratulations. It does seem that Rolex does release in batches. There were two for sale in the Orlando boutique over the last few weeks. The one actually sold while I was there picking up a watch. Stunning!!

Thank you, Michelle. It really is stunning, so much so, that my husband loved it, and wanted it, for me. He wears a $300.00 Seiko, so that’s saying something.

I added a link back in, and used my super expensive spring bar tweezers to tighten up the micro adjustment, in order to get a slightly looser fit, and still have the option of using the easy link, when needed. It feels better and looks better:

That’s interesting as my husband will refer to his SRP777 as his cheap watch. But then adds that it costs more than any sane person would pay for a watch.

The SRP 777 is too big, for me, so a Seiko diver I don’t have. My husband feels the exact same way: He loves his Seiko, which I gave him. When I call it a cheap watch, he reminds me that most people wouldn’t call it that. He may have a point.

sounds like my experience as well. the jeweller had sized it so that the easy link was out and the micro-adjustment was on the longest setting and it was just fitting when cold. as soon as I was in an warmer environment it was too tight. I also put a link back and its great now.

What tweezer tool do you use ?
