How many links do you guys have on each side of ur bracelets?? personally my watch has 6 and 4 it feels centered but i was thinking maybe 5 on each side would be ideal?? what's ur setup??

sellingblackbird · 30 April 2010, 11:26 PM

5 on the 6 o'clock side and 6 on the 12 o'clock side. Seems comfortable enough....

Kokyuryoku · 30 April 2010, 11:29 PM

This is my setup, straight out of the box

Not my picture. I think it's JJ's.

The 6:00 side should always be shorter to center the clasp. My oysters are 7/ 5.

on the 6:00 side.

dannyny · 1 May 2010, 12:09 AM

would 5 on each side be "wrong" or should i leave it at 6/4??

That's for you to decide. However, the clasp will not be centered under your wrist.

it looks off centered now, its looks like its leaning towards the 6 o'clock side

Use 5 on the six o'clock side, and whatever it takes on the other. Perfect fit every time.

tkc324 · 1 May 2010, 12:22 AM

I currently have 5 on each side..... and when the clasp is closed... you can see it clearly shorter on the 12 o'clock side.
I am considering changing it to 4 and 6.

LOL i had to start the thread it's been on my mind since you pointed it out...ahhhhhhhh

i think i want to see how it feels with 5/5

ddnyc77 · 1 May 2010, 02:08 AM

wow. i was wondering this very thing. I have two 14060m and one watch has an additional link on one side, the other is even one each side. They both feel comfortable and honestly I don't notice a difference, maybe because its only one link.
