Help to look at bracelet adjustment
Wearing a Pepsi 16700 and got it adjusted at a AD. Somehow the fit is not right as the watch keeps pulling towards the 12 o clock direction. The clasp is also not exactly at the centre of the underside of my wrist.
What and how else should I adjust? Sent from my VOG-L29 using Tapatalk |

either remove a link from the 6 oclock side (if its loose) or swap sides

If you can, move one link from the six o clock side and move it to the twelve o clock side. Or unscrew the clasp from the bracelet and then flip all the links from one side to the other.

As others have said, just remove a link from the 6 o’clock side and add a link to the 12 o’clock side. Then if you need to tighten or loosen the bracelet, you can make micro adjustments in the clasp. Nice Pepsi 16700. Enjoy

This is the view for the links under 6 o clock. I can only see 1 spring in 1 of the links. The rest of the links under the 6 o clock have no springs.
How can I remove then? Sent from my VOG-L29 using Tapatalk |

You're bottomed out on the 6 o clock side unfortunately. That's as small as it will go. |

In some cases with small wrists it helps to remove a permanent link.
Use the search function for some topics about this subject.

Try the “flip around” trick they mentioned above, my guy, it worked for me. The end links on the clasp are naturally longer in one direction than the other, and flipping the orientation of the clasp (that is, unscrewing the clasp and reattaching it in the opposite direction from stock) will make the sides more even. |

You want to have the inner clasp blades centered on your wrist, not the outer clasp hood.
