What I am trying to figure out is if the bracelet is perfectly centered now and I add 1 link, will the micro adjustments which are currently fully "out" give me enough leeway to make the 1 link additional net neutral as far as change. |

I’d have to check the boxes, but pretty sure I had the same amount of links removed from both BLNR and BLRO. Smallish wrist, don’t know the exact measurement.

Could use help.
With the bracelet pin in all the way (i.e. tightest), 0 links removed, and the extension clasp in (i.e. tightest), my BLRO is just the very slightest bit loose. What is the smallest adjustment I can make off of the configuration above?

Is there a fully brushed Oyster bracelet that will fit? Is this something my AD can source for me as a second/alternate bracelet to the Jubilee? Assuming RSC will not honor such a request if I made it myself (can’t think of a reason to unless I’d get material savings in doing so). Cost in the USA?

I have a 7" wrist. One link removed and the micro adjustment is set in the center position.
I wear the watch behind the wrist bone and theres enough to wedge a pinky between the wrist and clasp Sent from my SM-G960W using Tapatalk |

With four links it was way too loose but not loose enough that it would fall out. I ended up using only two links and with the adjustment on smallest position. I notice I would use the adjustment on hot humid days to make the watch more comfortable. If I consistently lived in the tropics I would have installed three. |

BLRO Sizing
Maybe my wrist size is just way out of the norm at 8.25", but I was barely able to wear the watch when I received it. I don't think that this is reasonable, but the extra links were less than I anticipated based on previous purchases of links for Rolex Watches. And in the big picture considering the cost of the watch at $9250 it was not that big of a deal. I ordered 4 extra links at $65 each, just to be sure I had enough. It took three to make it pretty loose with the expansion link closed. I wear my Seadweller tighter but with the glidelock it is easy to adjust. So, a forum member contacted me about the addition of the links and I sold him the other link that I had which worked out perfectly for his wrist size.

$65 a link is much cheaper that I thought they would be.
