if I were to remove just one link, which side should I remove the link from? 12 side or 6 side. I would assume 12 side, correct? If I were to remove two links, would i remove one from 12 side and one fro 6 side?

Really depends on how it fits for you. I don't remove any links and haven't had to size a Rolex since i started wearing them around 16-17.

I have 7" wrists and had 2 links removed on the 12 o'clock side. That said, your wrist may be of different shape so you may need to have one on each side removed.
