116719blro half link

Does anyone know if they make a half link for the 116719blro?

I've been losing a lot of weight lately (by choice) and I guess my wrists had some to lose as well. I can't seem to get the fit dialed in to the way I like it. Right now, I have a full link taken out, but I have the easy link extended. I like to have the option of extending the easy link for warm weather swelling, so I don't want to keep my band this way. Thanks.

There's officially no 1/2 link for 116719 bracelet 78209, but ref# 32-21027 initially made for 97209 (on Sub 116619) would fit if you can source one.

Thanks, I'll see if my AD can source one for me.

Where is the micro adjustment set? Are you in the middle? If so, a change there might help.

Not the EasyLink. See below

Mine is set on the outer most setting. See where yours is set. Mine is not a BLRO but a BLRNimage.jpg

I suppose the OP wants a WG link for his WG Watch.

Micro adjust helped me obtain a perfect fit for my Explorer II

Just be careful the tiny springbar doesn't fly out if you do it yourself!

Looks like mine is set in the middle, so I have one more to go out, that's great, thanks! I don't have the tool to do it myself, so I'll be visiting the AD again.

Thank you everyone!

I think the micro adjustment should get you where you want...if not, the WG sub half link is a good idea.

After trying all the combinations of removing links and moving micro adjustment holes I sourced a Sub half link for my GMT and finally got the perfect fit. Granted, mine's a SS model so it was only like $100, and wasn't a huge deal if it didn't work out. I imagine the WG half link will be significantly more...but if it works it would be worth it.
