Anyway, when I took him my Exp II he said it was very important to have the clasp flat on the back of my wrist and to do that he suggested the 5 link arrangement you suggested! He sized me to have 5 links on the 6 o'clock side and 7 on the twelve o'clock side. My Exp II fits my wrist perfectly and, as you say, is a very comfortable watch to wear. Thanks again for you review! Cheers, Bill P.
Thanks, Bill....yes, with the Oysterlock bracelet, one should have a maximum of only FIVE links on the '6' side - no more. The remainder of the links can go on the '12' side for a good fit.

Cheers - JJ
