Can the extension link on a ceramic Seadweller be removed? There is a screw head on both ends of the link, but I'm not positive it comes off. Specifically, on the end of the extension link closest to the end of the bracelet, I see the screw head on one side of the bracelet but I don't see the hole on the opposite side where the threads would screw in.

Right now I'm in the dilemma of needing to remove 2 standard links from the 12 o'clock side of the bracelet and it would be more comfortable to remove the extension link and leave the other 2 links attached.

Anyone else run into this?

A lot of folks have done that. If you don't intend on using it take it off. It will wear better.

Thanks! One of these days I'll learn how to better use the search function on here. I always have trouble getting search results I intended.

The suggestions were great...Rolex really put a lot of Loctite on the Diver's extension and it didn't want to budge!! When I tried to move it at first and then saw there wasn't a hole on the other side of the bracelet I began to second guess whether it could come off or not.

It's off now and sized to perfection...thanks for all the help!

Best mod ever.

Thanks to TRF I had my AD pop it off day 1. Seems it's a must.

Absolutely best thing I ever did as well!! Far more comfortable!!

For me, the SDc is much more comfortable sans diver's extension.
