adjusting size of president bracelet

Is there a way to manually make it a bit looser without removing links? It fits snug and id like to let it out a bit. Thanks

Don't you mean, "a way to manually make it a bit looser without adding links?"

Add a link back and let it be a tiny bit loose. There are small round case back padded stickers you can then apply to micro-adjust to your preference.

Yes, you add links to make a bracelet looser.

Got that part, but where would you guys go about buying another link? Is it a big deal to get an aftermarket one or go original? I have an F serial # president which they say has either less hollow links or more gold I forget which so if I go original wouldn't that matter?

I would use a Rolex trained watchmaker nearby. Or post a WTB in the TRF section for that.

I would not use aftermarket. Not being a snob - what if it failed for a savings of a few hundred$$$ and the whole thing dropped off your wrist at a bad time? Repairs or total loss could result.

You got a President!!! Be happy to add authentic link!
