Does anyone have a 1.5 link on a Royal Oak that they can post of a pic of? Wondering what it looks like.

Thanks

I don't have a pic but they look like a regular link, only a bit larger.

Funny.... just sent out a couple of emails looking for one of these.

Here you go.... Made my RO15300 a perfect fit. US$190 plus shipping from Clearwater service center. Not very noticeable in daily wear.

Mine has a slit down the middle like in the link.

craniotes · 22 July 2012, 01:18 PM

Yup, that 1.5 link made all the difference on my Diver and Jumbo; the latter sporting a faux slit down the middle, just like Mr. Steel's (the ROO 1.5 link looks exactly like the standard links, only larger).

Regards,
Adam

Thanks a lot for the pics and descriptions. I'd originally removed 1 link from the new ROC, but it still flopped around a little too much for my taste and comfort (7-inch wrist). I had thought removing a second link would make the watch too tight and immobile on my wrist, but yesterday I got the second link removed to trial it that way, and it's working pretty well. The watch keeps a nice wrist position, and while it doesn't slide when there's sticking, it does slide about an inch when no sticking. How do you guys like ROs or ROCs to fit?

Can you post some pics? Interested to see.

Here are pics of the different angles. My wrist isn't too thick, and I felt like the watch looked too big for the wrist and was less comfortable when it was flopping around and hanging loose, as it was when only 1 link was removed. Now that I have 2 links removed, it doesn't move around much at all, but it holds a position I like.
Thanks a lot for the pics and opinions.

Great looking AP and perfect size for your wrist.
The new 41mm ROC?

cdnyc · 23 July 2012, 11:10 PM

Thanks! Yup, 41mm ROC. Just came in last week.

///armin · 23 July 2012, 11:52 PM

Is removing the links with a screw driver or a different tool?

cdnyc · 24 July 2012, 12:52 AM

I've been getting it done at the shop, not doing it myself.
