Just curious to see what works best for most people. Mine is currently extended for daily wear, it just seems to make the watch fit more comfortably.

Sarosh · 21 August 2018, 10:11 AM

Mine is set to be closed. So I can open it when required in warmer conditions.

lenfried29 · 21 August 2018, 10:11 AM

retracted in the morning. extended at midday

superdog · 21 August 2018, 10:13 AM

I rotate back and forth a lot.

But I size it to have the link closed.

Spoonage · 21 August 2018, 10:14 AM

I adjust the bracelet with it “in”... I use the micro adjustment to get the fit I like, and on the very few instances throughout the year that I need to I deploy the easy link. If the micro adjustments don’t give you the right fit, perhaps buy a 1/2 link.

Mystro · 21 August 2018, 10:33 AM

Adjusted mine with it in. I seldom have to extend it.

This is exactly what I do — most are opened right now with the summer heat an humidity.

Extended on DJ41

kauffee · 21 August 2018, 11:16 AM

I leave it extended on my Daytona too. Seems to fit perfectly (just a little loose, the way I like) and I never notice significant differences in my wrist size. Even my sub with glidelock seems to stay in the same position year round.

MCO1 · 21 August 2018, 11:30 AM

I set mine for "in" so I can let it out as needed.

denmanproject · 21 August 2018, 12:12 PM

1 link out + middle hole micro-adjust + closed easy-link = my perfect fit

Toe_Fuz · 21 August 2018, 12:18 PM

Sized mine for closed when normal sized, so I can have quick relief after a hard day consuming beer and salty snacks

Tools · 21 August 2018, 12:21 PM

Wearing it extended all the time kind of defeats the purpose of it.

41mets · 21 August 2018, 12:22 PM

Almost always out... It's the best length for me including switching links out... And it's ever so slightly loose. So I can fold it in if necessary.

I live in Asia where it’s mostly hot...so I keep it extended. This is in case I travel to a place where it’s cold.

Bladeshot · 21 August 2018, 12:32 PM

Size to have the link closed. So when it’s hot you can expand it.

Exactly this - wish I didn't have to but it's the only way my GMT and Daytona fit the way I like.

Yes, wish I didn't have to to get the right fit..

jonathan17 · 21 August 2018, 12:58 PM

Big wrist problems, mine is extended with full links attached :haha:

Me too, closed when it’s cool and open when it’s hot and my wrist swells, to the extent possible I size my watches so this strategy works.

imgook · 21 August 2018, 03:25 PM

closed to start the morning, and may open during the day depending on what i'm doing or how hot it is.

JSL420 · 21 August 2018, 03:28 PM

Open most of the time it’s very warm and humid here, close when it’s cold or I need to move a lot

jagwap · 21 August 2018, 03:53 PM

Yes.

Yodel · 21 August 2018, 04:55 PM

You’re supposed to wear it retracted (normally) thus giving you the option of extending it when your wrist becomes swolen.
