37mm 1.5 link

Does anyone in the San Francisco bay area have a 1.5 link for the 15450?

I currently have all the full links on.. but when my wrist swells throughout the day it gets kind of tight. I was able to get my hands on a full link but that made it too loose. Anyone else run into this and by removing one and adding the 1.5 link make it better?

I got the 1.5 link a few weeks after getting the watch. Put it on for a bit, but in the end I ended up taking it back off. I felt it was a bit too lose for my taste with the extra half link.

Hmm I'm just having the problem where with all the links its snug then gets tight later as my wrist swells. If I add 1 full link it'll be too loose. Hopefully removing 1 link and then adding the 1.5 link will make it just right.

Yea I don’t think my wrists change size too much during the day, the only time I noticed the watch getting too tight was when I went bouldering for a few hours. I guess too much exercise makes the wrists swell haha
But I think it might be worth it for you to try it out!

I was able to easily pick up the full link but the 1.5 seems to be much harder to acquire.. called a few boutiques and they said it would get here maybe October.

That’s unfortunate, have you tried Clearwater? That’s how I got mine.
