Jubilee Bracelet Fit

I'm asking a question that has probably been asked many times before. On my new Datejust I want to be sure the watch isn't too lose or too tight. Is there a recommended way to "check" the fit of the bracelet to insure that it won't roll around the wrist, and on the other hand, be too uncomfortably tight?
I was fitted while in the caribbean where it was extremely warm. The AD removed one link and the watch seemed to fit ok. When I got home to more cooler climate, I find it is a little loose. Is there a standard measuring procedure for this?
Thanks for any help!

I think what you're experiencing is fairly common. I have my bracelet set where it's still comfortable no matter what the temperature is. On hot, muggy days it can certainly get a little snug, but not uncomfortable.

If I can slip a finger between the inside of the bracelet and my arm I'm good to go.

Ill fitting bracelets are one cause of stretch (along with not keeping them clean)
