I have many different models of rolex and I think the gmt2c is the most comfortable....maybe you have it too tight. For me I always have the tip of my pinky should fit through the wrist and bracelet.

Or get the Tudor Pelagos with the clasp mechanism the stretches.

I agree my guess would be that you have it a bit tight. Jus loosen it a bit and you will be good to go Keep in mind there is the easy link that you could just easily open to give you additional comfort as well.

Just set it further down your wrist. Sometimes when i wear a watch too close to my hand joint it feels awful !! Don't sell it, it is a stunner !!!!

Thanks for all the replies. I'll try wearing it higher on my wrist. Yes I have skinny wrists and I tend to wear my watch closer to the wrist joint.

We'll see how that goes.

I'm never going to sell this thing even if it's uncomfortable. I'm forcing myself to get used to it. It's just too darned beautiful to let go and I've waited almost half a year to get one.

Hang in there fella, it's gonna be worth it.

Had mine for 4 years as a daily beater, and it's like a part of me now...

I've even turned the car around to pick it up, if I've been in a rush and left home without it...

Put a super jubilee on it. I think the SJ is the most comfortable bracelet

GMT is my most comfortable. And I can adjust it quickly when needed. Yours likely needs to be adjusted.

I have small wrist and funny thing is I had the same problem with BLNR too.I just removed a link and the problem was solved. If the watch is a bit loose,so to say it wanders on your wrist back and forth hence the crown is rubbing against your hand.

If you have never worn a wrist watch or if you are used to a small light weight watch, the GMTIIC can take getting used to. Maybe try the other wrist.
