i believe full but the way it sits on the wrist might be the difference you need. try it. if it is too tight at least you tried.

Got it! I’ve at a 7.5 in wrist, and mine fits well at this point... my questions are purely academic

I'm clearly dense as I still don't understand this. Might help if I'd actually taken apart a bracelet myself before.

Or maybe I’m just bad at explaining things English is not my first language after all

use a tooth pick or a bobby pin point.

Wow. Great tip! Thanks for sharing.

I very recently bought the BB58 on a bracelet and it doesn't quite fit. It's either bit too tight or ridiculously loose. Tudor don't make half links for it, I don't want to wear it on a strap and I don't particularly want to start drilling extra hòles in the clasp to expand from the measly 3 micro adjustments that come OEM, as that would surely void the warranty.
That leaves me with either sourcing an aftermarket strap or somehow engineering a bit of stretch in the bracelet so that it fits better.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
As a side note, on the warranty, all I have is the store's stamp. My name, address and date of purchase have not been written in. Will I have a problem if I ever need to send it in for repair within the warranty period, which I believe has now been extended to 5 years as standard.
Thanks

You hit the nail on the head. For some reason Tudor doesn’t do half links. It’s a ridiculous design and really detracts from wearing Tudors comfortably with that type bracelet. They also could have put a couple more holes in the clasp. That’s why I sold my THC Blue.

The Black Bay bracelets don’t have half links. The North Flag however does. It’s also removable to allow for a custom fit.



It’s odd that they didn’t implement half links on the in house Black Bays since they’re released after the NF

It’s odd that Rolex only offers half links on the Submariner...
