Submariner is too small for you. You need to get the DSSD.

When I bought mine they threw in an extra link. If you bought from an AD you could check with them and see if they have some laying around. It seems odd they would but you never know.

I bet Steve would be able to find you one. He seems to get his hands on just about anything. Send him a PM.

Just go to your nearest AD and order a couple if they don't have them in stock.

They only cost a few bucks each.

I have a large wrist and prefer the sub. Just had to get 3 links for my Sub. Ran about $600 with the cost of an appraisal thrown in. Edit *I suspect it depends on what type of bracelet the sub is on*

I don't mean that...I have the SS and Gold bracelet on my sub so the links are more expensive than an all SS bracelet link. I got links for my Explorer II bracelet (all SS) for about $90 - $100 I think (3 of them). The links for the Sub bracelet were almost $600. Depends on the bracelet.

Links in the States for a SS Sub should be in the $40 to $50 range. As was previously mentioned, just go to your nearest AD if you can't find them on this forum. As far as fit is concerned, it's essentially personal preference. However, many folks wear their watch with enough space to insert a finger between the bracelet and their wrist. Good luck.
