Sizing my BLNR
So after playing around with the sizing on my BLNR I’ve found the most comfortable for me is by having 5 links on the 12 o’clock, 4 links on the 6 o’clock, microadjustment in the middle slot, and easylink extended out. Is it ok to have the easylink extended all the time? I would prefer to have the easily link closed so I have to option to extend when my wrist swells up.
My guess is a full link is 10mm, easy link is 5mm and each microadjustment slot is 3mm. My preferred fit of 9 links, middle slot in the clasp, and easylink extended is a baseline of 0. My index finger fits under the clasp. If I keep the same amount of links, close the easylink (-5mm) and go to the loosest adjustment on the clasp (+3mm), I would be 2mm smaller than the baseline. This is my second choice, but I’d prefer to have it a tad looser as only my pinky fits under the clasp. If I add an extra link (+10mm), go to the tightest slot (-3mm), and close the extension (-5mm) I would be 2mm larger than the baseline. |

You can see if you can source a 1/2 link from a SubC and polish the center link. That may get you the room you need and keep the Easylink closed.

My AD took a couple links out and extended the easylink all the way. I'm thinking of taking it back and adding a link so I can control the easylink myself. In its present condition, it's a little tight on my wrist and leaves an indention.

Yeah that would be my second choice, but is still 2mm smaller than the baseline. I might try to get the extra half link.
