Is this normal for an Air King?

Just bought this watch pre-owned but hardly used. Still has the plastic protection on the back of the case and clasp, and has 6 months left on the international warranty. It's a 2015 Air-King

There seems to be a slightly larger gap between the top link at the very top neat the lug, on the bottom right hand side...

It's not a big gap but seems to be slightly larger then the other 3... Would this be cause for concern?

Nice AK. Not a big issue. However, if this bothers you, check with AD where you bought from, I am sure RSC will take care of it.

I think it is the angle of the bracelet that is pulling towards one side. Not a flaw IMO.

Thanks! I might pop into an AD and see what they say.

Yep it looks that way. I swapped it around and strapped it on upside down to see if it pulled the same and it didn't, so I'm not sure really.

It's just a little bracelet stretch.

Try it on the other wrist.
