I purchased this ca. 1977 1803 a couple of years ago in Malta. I love it to death, but the bracelet has always been mildly tight, particularly during the hot summer months of Arizona. So I'm thinking of buying a link or more off E-Bay and taking to a local watch-repairer who works on Rolexes to do the sizing.

Questions:

1. Is this a good plan? Is there a better plan?
2. Would either of these E-Bay offering be appropriate for this?

3. Should I buy one, two, or three links?

Thanks for any help.

I would start with two. If you need another, it won't be hard to find one more and add it.
