How many links on a SD bracelet?

Hi. Does this look right? I removed one link but can't remember from which side. I still think there's one or two missing. How many links on your SD and how many of them are removable?

Marked in red are the removable links and the diving extension ink in blue.

Looks right to me - just wrist-checked my SD (M-2008) and it has the same count as yours. I had 2 links removed, and have an extra link which was provided with the dive-chart in the tool kit.

Hope this helps!

Thanks, I'm not sure where the link that I removed belongs to. Any idea? Can you tell, from the way yours is set up?

Thanks!

So I have 4 on the 6 oclock side (not including the one connected to the clasp). That means that the one I removed, belongs here?

Well, you have 5 links on the 6 o'clock side which is correct!!

However, on the 12 o'clock side I see only 8 links (which should be 9) so obviously you've taken off ONE link from the '12' side.

Here's a picture of an SD with ALL ORIGINAL links intact - note 9 links on the '12' side (not including the FLAT link marked "S"), and 5 links on the '6' side.
