A lot. Don't travel without it anymore. More useful than a GMT function for me.

Not very often at all on my LVC - once every couple of months or so. I change it on my Smurf much more often. In summer it can be almost daily. Especially on holiday when in and out of the pool etc.

How often do you adjust your glide lock?

I’ve had my suv with a glidelock for about 2 years. I think I’ve adjusted it once. I actually prefer the easy link clasp myself. I find that I use the easy to click out half link way more than the glidelock.

I haven’t adjusted it since I bought my watch, but I haven’t had to deal with Summer weather yet.

I have adjusted my smurf glidelock twice in the almost two years I have been daily wearing.

Not so bad.

Probably about 5 times per week, which seems to be more than most other replies.

Whenever, no set times. I have this bracelet on my Batman so it’s a daily wearer. That’s why I love the glidelock.

I've had mine for almost three months and initially it was several times a day. I must have found the sweet spot because I haven't used it in several weeks now.

Once or twice a month. I played with it more when I bought it...

Depends. Somedays I use it more often than others. Somedays, I do not use it at all. I do think it is one of the coolest watch features out there.

Hardly ever but when I do it’s a priceless feature. Mostly in extreme temp changes do I need to bump it in a notch or let it out a notch.

Never. Had to adjust my smurf a few times the first week I had it it because it’s heavier than what I am used to, but when I found the sweet spot, haven’t adjusted it since. As for my other SS watches, never.
