Well it's only the first day but I can say I'm in a very good mood today

I have a question about the bracelet sizing, with the glidelock at smallest setting it feels a tiny bit loose, I prefer to wear it snug, I did some googling and some say I can unscrew the screw on the bracelet with a screwdriver that comes with glasses but I couldn't turn it at all. Do I need to buy some special screwdriver to do it? I've read about people using loctite to hold the pin on the other end? Now I have no idea what loctite is and what it looks like but I assume it's like a glue?

"Now I have no idea what loctite is and what it looks like but I assume it's like a glue?"

Use the right kind sparingly and it's not too bad. Sounds like someone might have gotten excessive.

Congrats on a beautiful watch, tho!
