Do you were your AP RO tight?
I have an extra link in hand for my ROC and was wondering if I should keep the watch tight or a bit lose .. wondering what's the experience with you guys as wearing Rolex Jubilee ruins the bracelet

mine is kinda tight, but it’s able to move up and down a bit. when it goes higher on my wrist it tightens up a bit more and leaves a mark, when it’s on the lower end i can [barely, very tightly] fit my pinky under it. it’s essentially the same as i’ve always worn my watches, kinda tight but never uncomfortably so. fwiw i tried using the 1.5 link when i first got it since it felt a bit tighter than my previous watch [first steel bracelet i’ve had] but that was too loose for me so went back to just regular links.

i do have a couple scratches on the clasp side but i think they’re all from the desk or something else, i try to not let the watch touch the laptop by not resting my wrist on it or pulling the watch higher on my arm if i do. though i think that protects the laptop more than the watch since the laptop is all aluminum which is quite soft. |

I prefer mine a little on the loose side because of the relative inflexibility of the bracelet. I don’t mind if it slides around a bit, but not so loose that it can rotate around my wrist.

My wrist always seems to need the 1.5 link. Except strangely enough for grand Seiko which brilliantly has two .6 links. If I had to choose I go on the side of slightly loose. I recently had a watch that was a smidge too tight and the bracelet attachments ended up slightly bent.

A bit loose, similar to srvrf. I seem to wear all my pieces more loose the older I get...

Tight for me, 7 inch wrist with 3 links removed. Otherwise it moves/slide easily due to the weight.

wearing it a bit lose is best for the bracelet and also for comfort

It is not a bracelet, it’s a watch. Should be tight enough to not move around.

One of the biggest gripes of my AP is lack of micro adjustment. For me, I’m wearing it slightly looser than I like as it does move down the wrist most of the time. If I take another link out then it’s too tight sometimes that I notice it and feels uncomfortable.
Suppose I’ll just need to shell out for that 1.5 link! But I do think the AP bracelet models look much better tighter than loose. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
