Links?

36 hrs in and I've noticed my 3rd niggle.

When they adjusted the bracelet they took 2 links from the same side so the clasp is a little to far around. It feels comfortable but I'm guessing I should get a link taken out of the other side and one put back in??

I'd buy a screwdriver and do it yourself.

You should remove the number of links that you need for it to fit... What is left should be arranged for a comfortable fit..

Typically, you should have 5 links (or 4 1/2) on the 6 o'clock side of the watch. The new bracelets now have an additional link that can be removed to go down to 4 links on the 6 oclock side for smaller wrists....

Which is the tool and the size I need to remove the pins in the clasp and lugs? The oyster bracelet screw head is 1mm is this correct?

Thanks
