Rolex Sub size question

[MikeRW]

So i have a quick question for you guys with new subs.

I am about a month away from pulling the trigger on my first new rolex and i have it down to a sub because i think the glide lock is just the best thing since sliced bread and I have wanted a sub since i was a kid.

my question is out of the box what is the biggest wrist one of these guys can fit?
i have a heck of a hard time finding watches that fit my monster wrist the last watch i bought was a Tissot and i have to order extra links at the time i bought it.

my wrist is around 8 1/2 can anyone let me know if they sub can open that much?
it really would stink to not be able to wear it the day i buy it and maybe i should preorder sub links to be on hand when i buy.

thanks for the info

You would need to add 1 extra link

When I bought my Sub new some years ago the AD had to add an extra link, which was F.O.C I might add. I think it's about the same size as yours...Not that I actually measure it!

Absolutely a 8.5 inch will fit! Rolex Submariner with glidelock. My bracelet was large enough, but I have it on a Rubber B enjoying since last winter. Good luck! :thumbs:

x2. Otherwise, it may fit, BUT you won't have any adjustment with the glide lock because it will be extended all the way out. If were me, I would order that link in advance!
