I know we have covered this subject as it applies to the sports watches (JJ)but I can't seem to get mine to feel comfortable on my wrist. I talked to my AD and he suggested moving some links around. Any one out there give me some advice?It seems to always be on the left side of my wrist.I have to turn my wrist to the right to really see the dial. Bill

I think thats common with any watch. My DD does that I think because it has a little play, I don't like it any tighter. Check how many links you have. I have all the links in that came from the factory which has 15 on the 12 o'clock side and 9 on the 6 o'clock side. I think if you have less on the 12 side that will put your watch toward the back.

I'm pretty sure a DD comes with 24 links on the President bracelet.

15 on the '12' side and 9 on the '6' side. If you wear the watch this way, the fit should be perfect.

If you need to take off links, do so from the '6' side - NOT the '12' side.

However, if you need to take off say 3 links, then take off 2 from the '6' side and just one from the '12' side.

Let us know how it works out.

Good luck - JJ

Shucks!

That's one of the disadvantages of the DD bracelet (and new DJ bracelet for that matter). You can only "adjust" it/them by adding, removing or shifting links since there is no adjustment facility in the clasp. There is an option for the DJ, though: 1 1/4 links! But as far as I know these are not availible for the AD.

JJ's advice, as always, sounds like the only way to go. Let's hope it works.
