Sub bracelet size difference
So I sized my 116613LB the same as my 114060 including the glide lock length but the Bluesy was way too small, they look identical but on the wrist tells a different story. Are the links a slightly different size between the steel and rolesor or something?

I think they are different. It's a couple of years back now for me so memory has faded, but I remember wearing my 116610LV when I collected my 116613LB from my AD. The AD said the Hulk wouldn't be a good template for sizing the Bluesy, and sure enough, they came out different. Both very comfortable though.

Maybe different number of half links in the bracelets?

Same single half end link between the removable link and glide lock.

TT and Gold have 12 full minus the half link. Full links are the same size regardless of metal. |

Sorry yeah you're right, it looks like a half link but not as big and only serves as a go between from the link to the glide lock.

My YG Sub only has 12 full links and NO half link and fits perfectly. With both watches the glide lock was pushed all the way in. 7.5 inch wrist. |

It's still mind boggling how much of a size difference I've had to make on the glide lock. I have the same amount of links on the bluesy as the SS sub and have had to pull the glide lock out quite a bit... physics has a way I suppose
