Rolex GMT-IIc Bracelet Adjustment
Hi
Is there a step by step guide on how to adjust a GMT-IIc with pictures? I understand its clasp etc are slightly different. AD closed over the next few days and I have a new watch here that needs to be sized. Cant wait for 4 days! hahah Thanks in advance |

The "easy-link" section is held into the clasp with a spring bar which sits in blind holes (ones that do not go right through the clasp) re-position this spring bar to adjust by fractions of a link.....remove a whole link(s) if the adjustment within the clasp isn't sufficient....
In all honesty it's a very similar method to adjusting any other Oyster type bracelet....if you forget about the "easy-link"....i.e. a moving springbar within the clasp and removable links.......simple.....the "easy-link" just gives that extra comfort once the bracelet is adjusted Remember if the weather is cool....adjust with the easy-link closed (shortening the bracelet)...that means when it warms up or gets humid you can extend the bracelet easily If it's warm/humid, adjust with the easy-link open.....
