President bracelet .. 1.25 link

[Chris B]

My 118206 bracelet fit is just on the cusp of sizing where it is a little loose but removing a link makes it too tight.
After reading recent posts here about the 1.25 link I figured that if I removed two links and added the 1.25 then the strap may fit perfect, with this in mind I just gave RSC a ring.

They say the 1.25 link is £1686 and as long as they fit it they say I can have 14 days grace for a refund if I don’t find it comfortable.

We all know that pricing comes with the territory & as we’re a long time dead I don’t usually shy away from spending money on myself these days,
but jeepers that price is not to be sniffed at .

I did try but they weren’t interested in taking a couple of links as a swap/part exchange deal lol

I’ll have a little think about it before deciding, but maybe I should just eat a few more pies

Or eat a lot less pies lol.

I have a Plat DD and I'm in the same situation ... it's a little too tight if links are removed, and a little too loose going the other way. The 1.25 link is mighty expensive so I decided to just wear it looser. When the weather is warm, it's a little less loose, and when it's cooler, it's more loose. I don't mind, it's not worn too often, I've my other Rolex's which I rotate it with ...

I'd eat the pies.

I can say the 1.25 link on my DJ made all the difference for a great fit. Was £42.

Chris, they say the weather here is due to change at the weekend so that loose fit may not be so loose once you grab some tinnies & get out in the sun, that price is seriously ott, hopefully someone here may have a spare at a fraction for when them wrists get skinny again come the colder weather (end of May then )

Yes you could do a time share with the 1.25 link with someone in Oz. When it's summer in the UK send to Oz for their winter and vice versa.

All excellent suggestions guys

The 1.25 looks perfect on your DJ Wes

I to have the same problem with my DD. I wear it loose then it has room to allow wrist swelling . If I go the other way and take a link out I have it way to tight when my wrist swells .
