I'm working towards my first Oysterflex purchase, but don't understand the different sizes that are available. I haven't found anything via a search. I'd super appreciate anyone that could point me in the right direction.

Check out this thread:
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=550768 All ADs should have the tool. Even if they won't sell you an Oysterflex, maybe a nice salesperson can measure your wrist for you? |

I can tell you that I owned a ym with oysterfkex and my sizes were EF and EE and I have a 6.5” wrist. I believe the standard size it came with was EF and EG and it would have fit at least a 7” wrist. Hope this helps.

I have 6.75 inch wrist and I am EE on both sides with the ezlink set to tight fit. aD tried D/F and it was too tight. When I used the tape to measure it had me at DF too. So best to find a local AD with all the sizes in stock and have them size it for you.

For others interested, I have a 7.5 inch wrist and according to the size chart I should wear an EF/EG or EE/EH. I tried the EF/EG and it was way too big. The EE/EG fits perfectly. I have the micro adjustment in the clasp closed. The strap is set to the middle of the 3 holes inside the clasp. |

It’s definitely hard to size especially if you want to fit it to a model it’s not standard on. For example I tried on the rose gold ym and the standard EE / EG fit perfect. I was able to source that size and to big for the sub. It was due to the clasp sizes being different / possibly the lug hole position. I was able to eventually source a size EF and sell the EG. Now perfect fit.
I have never measured my wrist but just for reference my current set measures the following on the bracelet EE - 4 links EF - 6 links I am thinking EG would equal 7 links |
