I am curious how much research Rolex did to pick 5mm as the optimum length. As to the OP's question, I adjust my watch looser when I lay down or after lifting weights. Traditionally I would just size my bracelets a bit looser than tighter for this size change. With easylink I can wear my DJ2 a bit more precise and tighter without the feeling of my wrist being strangled when it swells. Has any one ever developed any looseness snapping the easylink closed by excessive use??

This is with my easylink in:
That's a very crisp wrist shot! Great looking watch.
