Question re Endlink on Sub 14060

[Wrist Watcher]

Hey guys. I’m considering getting this tritium 14060, but I noticed that the endlink on this one is flipped up towards the bezel. I was told that all bracelets have some play on the wrist and this isn’t abnormal. Any thoughts?

I have only owned the newer six-digit models and have never experienced this, so I would appreciate your advice and thoughts on this.

(Sorry if this isn’t “vintage” yet and should be on the other forum.)

There really is no excuse for Sub end links to be in this condition.

If it has proper 2.0mm spring bars, and the inner tube is sound, the fix is to squeeze it together slightly, or to bend the "bat wings" on the backside, to rotate the upper contour into contact with the case.

So would you pass on this one then or are you saying it’s an easy fix? Unfortunately, I can’t put my hands on it before buying. Thanks.

I would not pass on a decent example because somebody else doesn't know how to fit end links.

I would want to know the end link number though. The only real difference between 501's and 580's is this distance for the slightly thicker cases. It they were 580's, I might leave them alone and hide them (laughing at my good fortune), then replace them with some 501's
