I refuse to wear a watch, or anything else, that does not fit right. Especially for the money tied up in the watch. I went back to a 116618LB and love the oyster band and glidelock. A perfect fit every time. Now that leaves me with a Platinum DD II that was a grail. It fits even worse than the YG, because of the weight, but is beautiful in a way that I have not been able to part with. I am waiting on Basel to see the new releases and will make a decision.

Agree with you regarding the micro adjustment on the DD line of braclets. It would be so excellent if Rolex could figure out a way to add this feature to the DD line.

I believe someone eluded to a patent pending for this here on TRF at one point.
