Hello guys and girls...

Does anybody else have issues in getting the perfect fit with this piece? On the 6:00 side, you are only able to remove 1 link. Ideally, as with all of my other Rolex's in the past, have worn with 4 links at 6:00 side, which allows the clasp to sit nicely central, of course dependent on wrist size.

The issue I have is I have no choice to wear with 5 links at 6:00 side, and 5 links at 12:00 side, to many this may seem perfect and the clasp sit central, unfortunately not for me! It feels awkward and a little tight in the heat. When I add a link in at 12:00 it solves the clasp central issue, but wears a little too big. I've played around with the fine adjustment too and its just not enough.

Let me know your thoughts, i'd be keen to hear who else has the same issue. That aside, what a great piece the BB is!

I sold mine for the exact same reason. I was always between links and could not find an ideal fit.

What is your wrist size?

It's the only rub I have with the brand. Tudor would do well to offer a half link or another micro adjustment on the clasp.

I've gone 5 on the 6 o'clock side and 6 on the other. Wrist shape has a lot to do with it. I fought the Pelagos more than the BB.

I had 3 links removed on mine and made the micro adjustment on the clasp. It sits a little snug but that's how I like it.

I have been wearing mine on a navy blue nato (which I think looks fantastic) and when I go back to the bracelet I only keep it on there for a few days because I miss the look on the nato. The BBB is such a versatile watch. Looks great on many different straps. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I have enjoyed mine (9+ months). By the way, mine has "settled in" and has kept perfect time according to the USNO clock. Fantastic watch!
