Sub half link.
Does it matter which side the half link is on? Is there a right way and wrong way or which ever way allows the watch to sit/fit best. I moved the half link to the 6:00 side to better center/balance the watch.

Put the links on so that it fits you comfortably, it doesn't matter which side that is.

You don’t need a half link on a 6 digit,

Please don’t tell me what I need or don’t need on my watch. If Rolex felt the same way they wouldn’t include one with the sub...
I wear mine with the glidelock on the closest setting which allows me to adjust outward from there. |

I move mine each time I get a Sub.
The second time I got a Sub I forgot to move it and the fitment was crap then I remembered! Got the fitment down to a science. Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk

I wear mine on the 6 o’clock side but there’s no reason you can’t wear it at 12.
I also sources a half link for the Dblue, because I found it fit better with the extra half link |

Can anyone explain why an SS sub date has a half link but a TT sub does not?

Do they makes these for 93150 bracelets? I’d love a 1/2 link

No, but it will still fit on the older bracelets. Main difference is the link is solid vs hollow and the sides are polished vs brushed.

I would place the half on either side depending on which gives best fit. I wear mine on the 12 o'clock side because on the 6 digit I have no need for it but loved wearing my 16610LV with the fixed half link at 6 o'clock side.
