Easy Link Question...

[Tuffstang]

Try what Mystro posted. Worked for me on my BLRO Jubilee bracelet that I had been wearing too tight or with the easy link deployed.

I am trying to figure out which half link to source! Will the 124060 sub half link fit the 224270?

Good thread here. I've been wearing my BLNR Oyster with the easy-link open as I could never get it to fit just right. I just added a full link, moved the micro adjustments to the full tight detent and with the easy link closed it fits perfectly and can open it when needed in the summer. The micro adjustment was the trick.

OP, you should not have to use the easy link just to get your new watch to fit your wrist. Ask your AD to order you an extra link, even though you have to pay for it. You will feel better, about the fit, and the watch. Most importantly, you will be able to use the easy link, for its intended purpose.

Could not agree more regarding stingy. I have a 7.5" wrist but when trying on some Rolex models a few months back at the AD they were nearly a perfect fit without needing to remove links (at the time I though wow many folks would need to order extra links). Fast forward to this week and I had my new Longines Hydroconquest GMT sized to my wrist, 4 links removed! That shows generous Vs stingy!

After a few days, and even comments here, that my watch looked a little right, I added a link back in, and did the same. Now easy link is available to me, IF I should need it. Of course now, I feel it’s a tiny bit loose, but it’s certainly comfortable. I could benefit from a half link, but none available for 36 mm OP, AFAIK.
