Icon5 Stupid question,very stupid..Here I'm... (clasp 114060)

Good morning!
I just got my 114060 and I'm pleased with the way it simply perfectly sits on my wrist!Much better that my previous Exp 1 39mm probably also thanks to the glidelock or maybe also the case..I don't know the reason I only know that it's simply perfect!! When i look at the clasp I see it off centered ,a bit too right when looking at it, and my question is : If i go to my AD to have it fixed is there any minimum chance that then my watch will not fit as perfect as now? If the AD starts changing the N. of links to meet the centre with the clasp then the way it feels on my wrist could change or nothing will change?

I only know that now is perfect and I don't want to risk to have a perfectly centered clasp and a watch not feeling right..

Your advice my RolexBible? (thank you,for my purchase of my Exp 1 and now my 114060 you were very important and helpful.Grazie.)

You can ask your AD to change links and if you are not happy just put them back again.

Or just keep it as it is, the feeling is better then the look.

You can't go wrong, you are only removing removable links.

I play around with the micro adjustment first. Not sure if this clasp has them but I thought that I remember reading that it does have this hidden somewhere in that clasp? As Jocks says, the feeling is better than the look!

Without knowing your set up, it would be difficult to say, but, you could try arranging the links so that there are more on the 12 o'clock side than the 6 o'clock side without changing the overall number of links in the bracelet.

Also keep in mind that once you have adjusted the watch for that perfect fit...it will very likely "adjust itself" on your wrist once you are wearing it. Something that I really never thought about...that someone on here said a few months back..."most people's wrist is not flat"...so your watch is likely to lean/lay off center a bit...unless you adjust it pretty tight.
