A local AD called me and told me they have a Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39mm 114300 in white which I really liked (I also have a Submariner ceramic no date, a Tudor BB ETA red bezel, and a Tudor BB Heritage blue dial).

Will the bracelet fit an 8" wrist? I've been told it might be tight (I'm going to see the watch Monday, but I'm itching to know!)...

My wrist is only 6.75" and the stock bracelet is only a little loose on me. I'm pretty confident you'll need an extra link or two.

The AD should be able to source additional links if required. Congratulations in advance should you choose to pick it up

Ugh, what a letdown, not being able to wear it immediately. Will they make me pay the links? Just curious...

My first Rolex was the OP39 in blue, and I had to have an extra link to fit my 8” wrist comfortably... I had to pay for it.

May I ask, how much it was?

Probably like $100 or less.

You will need extra link for sure. 8 inch wrist here and AD provided it for free.

My wrist is a bit over 7.5" and I needed an extra link on my OP. Most ADs wont let you walk out the door until the watch fits your wrist. Its a basic brushed 15.5mm link so most ADs have them in stock.

It’s $75 approximately.

I also have a 8” wrist and when I purchased my Explorer I needed to buy an extra link.

$75 sounds right
