Wrist shots of how loose your sub dates are
I seem to go back and forth with how snug a fit I have on my TT sub date. Was wondering how others wear theirs. Too bad the subs do not have the half link like the new GMT eh ? And I guess that cannot be retrofitted to the new subs ?

I wore my now flipped SS Sub Date as I wear all my watches. Fairly snug but so that you can still put your little finger under the clasp.

Mine stays adjusted about like JJ's/Jon's does/do. That pic is accurate for Subbie's tightness.

I believe that I wore one of my Sub's to loose and paid the price. Because after about 5 yrs I had to have the bracelet replaced, due to the some of the pins being bent.
Also the clasp would no longer shut securely. That IMO is the weakest part of the watch

The sub has the micro adjustments on the clasp, that should give you better adjusting than a half link. Maybe you should have it re sized again then play with the adjustments on the clasp. I find that I need to adjust my sub one little notch larger in the summer, I do this on the clasp and it makes for a perfect fit all year long.

Pinkie under the clasp seems to work for me.
