DJ 41 Jubilee Easy Link & Sizing

[Vince_76]

Have a DJ41 on jubilee (116234). I have had the easy link in the short position since I bought it. The bracelet fits a bit tighter now than usual given the warm weather.

I’m trying to see if it’s worth adding a link, and I think a good litmus test is how much does the easy link extend and how much does 1 jubilee link add?

Also, I assume when you buy the watch, it doesn’t come with 1/4 or 1/2 links, right? How much length do those add?

Thanks

Bump. Would appreciate some thoughts here.

Not sure what you mean.. why don’t you just open the ez link?

I think the easy link adds 5mm. I have a datejust 41 and it was feeling a bit snug but with the easy link extended it was too loose. I had my AD micro adjust the clasp which I think is 2.5mm. Fits perfect now.

Thank you. And how much length does a link, 1/2 link and 1/4 link add?

I’ve not owned the 41, but I did own the DJ2. It did not come with a half link but you could use a link from a Submariner or GMT.

The easy link adds 5mm, a half link … about half of that

I’ve never heard of a quarter link.

Got it. Thanks!

Poking around, it seems that a link is 8mm. Can anyone please confirm? That would mean a full link would add more than an easy link by a decent amount (3mm).

What would a jubilee half or quarter link even look like? All jubilee links are so much shorter than oyster links it's like the entire bracelet already comes made of 1/4 links. I removed a single link from mine last week and that shortened the bracelet by about 5.5 mm

I have a DJ41 with the jubilee bracelet that fit me perfectly right out of the box.

Over the past 3 months I have been working out and lost 25 pounds.

Now my DJ41 is very loose and slides down to my hand.

My wrist size in the morning is now 7.1875 (7 3/16) inches.

My AD did move the micro adjustment to the smallest size but it still too loose.

What links should I ask the AD to remove for the best fit?

I'd take 1 out of the 6oclock side and set back the easy link to the middle for a start.

Set the easy link back in and micro adjust to middle.
Take one link out
Then adjust micro adjust to suit.

The easy link should always be adjusted whilst in position. So that you can flick it out when it’s hot. The caveat is if it’s a very hot day you take that into account or flick the easy link out to see how it feels

I would suggest taking one off the 12 side. They come stock overloaded on the 12 side for some reason. Put the easy link inside (shorter) and set the micro adjust in the clap to the middle if possible.

I took one off mine for my 7 1/2" wrist so it's possible you may have to remove two. But again even with the one link removed I have like 8 on the 12 side and 6 on the 6 side. I can get it out of the safe and count them up if it helps?

Just wondering did you mean DJ41 126334 or 36 116234?
because the reference you've mentioned is 36mm and the DJ II didn't come on jubilee
