Thanks so much.
Took the divers extension out and added half link to 6 o'clock side and transferred one full link from 6 to 12 side. Perfect!!

Regards.

Congrats!

When this watch first came out I thought it was ridiculous....then I tried one on.

Love these in person...A little too big for me since I have smaller wrists but if I had the cash I would seriously consider owning one.

Please report back how you like it after giving it some major wrist time!

First day was terrible with the 4 links on 6 side making it too short and the long clasp was digging into thumb side of my wrist. Had moved the 5th link from 6 to the 12 o'clock side as I removed the divers extension on 12 o'clock side.
Added a half link on 6 o'clock side and pain vanished totally on second day.
The 4 and a half link on 6 o'clock side is perfectly comfortable.
This watch is very very sensitive to fit. Trying it on at an AD is worthless as it flops and feels too tall. Once fitted its so much better...,it "disappears".

Regards.

3 days in and I forgot and wore it all night asleep. It's amazing what that half link and removal of the divers extension does! The weight is easy to get used to as its similar to a solid gold Rolex. The DSSD just has a horrible bracelet to get to fit right....one would think the glide lock would make it easy...but without TRF I would have never known the little tricks.

Regards.
