Thanks for the half links!

Rolex. Thanks for having half links! It saved my life. Now my watch and clasp as both centered and I'm able to have my glide lock half way so I can adjust it either way

I'm so happy to have my watch and clasp centered after 1 year

Too bad they don't offer them for their two-tone models. One of the reasons I haven't pulled the trigger on a 116613 yet. Ridiculous.

I was pleased that Rolex had them for YG as well. Makes a world of difference on the 116718 and 116688.

You should know better than to assume without first asking here!

The half link for the 116613 retail from Rolex is $180, and the full link is $210.

I have asked many times (here and at an AD) and have been told many times they didn't offer one. If they do now, awesome.

Rolex has always offered them for sale. Maybe time to look for a more informed AD!

I do hope they have the half-link with PCL, I need one, just one......

Last time (March '14) I went to RSC and asked for a half-link, they looked at me like I was nuts.

Well, like I said, I've asked here several times too. It honestly wasn't an enormous deal for me or I guess I would have pursued it with Rolex directly. I'm already regretting even bringing it up again. Yeesh.

I found out in the first month and glad i did. Got the glide lock halve way as well

Somebody told me to have the 6 o'clock side of the bracelet 1 link less then the 12 o'clock side. So the watch itself doesn't drop to the outside as much and stay more on the center of the wrist. Of course it has also to do with how loose you wear the watch. But in my case it seems te work pretty well. Any one else heard about this and tried it?
