18 mm micro adjustment clasp?
Greetings all,
I recently picked up a 2016 SMP Diver 300 midsize ref. 212.30.36.20.03.001 and while it looks great on my 6.25" wrist I can't quite get the bracelet sizing in my sweet spot. As I'm wearing it now it's a tad too snug but adding a "half-link" makes it far too loose. I'm wondering if Omega makes a micro adjustment clasp for this watch's bracelet. I believe the bracelet model is 1516/795. Thanks in advance! Matt |

I'm looking for the same option. I know they make a clasp with 3 micro adjustments but have not been able to find a thread dealing with this mod.

If the difference between "too snug" and "far too loose" is a half-link, then you may have to manage your expectations about how perfect of a fit can be achieved. My vote is to put the half-link in and see how it goes.

Yeah, for sure, I'm erring on the side of more room! My wrist definitely expands and contracts slightly throughout the day, especially since I've been renovating rental properties in houston, and the heat, my god the heat, really swells up the wrist! I've just been spoiled by my sub's glidelock haha

You mean 18mm wide clasp or links at the clasp ?
The currently available options are 18mm links and 20mm clasp. But the new SM300 will come with a bracelet that tapers to 16mm and a new adjustable clasp, so that might be the ticket when it becomes available. In the meantime, if you're open to a "static" solution, try replacing a full link with two half links. Half links are not really half the size of the normal ones, but bigger. That is usually the intermediate size to adding a half link to a full. |
