Having a difficult time with SubC on my wrist

[Risley]

Hi all,

I'm running out the door so Ill send a couple pics later but in the mean time, I like my SubC to sit centered on my wrist but it always works it's way away from me if that makes sense.

When I do adjust the Sub back into position the clasp is way off center on the underside of my wrist. I did take one link out.

Thanks,
Risley

Use the glide lock to get it perfectly snug where it won't slide around

Not meaning any disrespect, but session with a shrink will be easier...

Getting the Sub to always sit right even after massive efforts fiddling with the links, clasp, etc. is still a risk it will slide left or right...

its going to be a bit top heavy if you wear it loose and will slide around...when you center the face on the top of your wrist, however, if the clasp is not centered then you should investigate adding/removing links from one side or the other.

A heavy watch will always work it's way to the outside of your wrist... it's physics/gravity..

Hi,
It's snug, it just wants to sit off center on my wrist. I can center it but it works it's way off center after just a short time, so I keep having to adjust it on my wrist.

Well..... I tried attaching pics but got an error here saying "security tokens were missing"??? I contacted admin. Sorry

My wrist is 7" in dia. if that helps regarding how many links I should have on each side of bracelet.
Thanks

There is NO DOUBT I need help, thats a given

I have a 7.25" wrist, and every single one of my watches does the same thing that you're describing. I wouldn't worry about it.

You're best bet will always be to set up the bracelet so that the entire clasp is centered directly below the watch. Like this...

Increase calorie count by 2400 calories a day for approx 60 day...this will do the trick.

My wrist is about 7, I used to wear my DSSD with 5 links on 6 o'clock side and 5 on 12 o'clock side and had the same issue; I now moved a link to 12 o'clock size and situation improved and clasp is more centered. I plan to do the same with my other Rolex's.

That is exactly the same link configuration I use, and it's perfect. Of course gravity will always tend to bring your watch to the outside of your wrist, but readjusting it just gives you an excuse to look at and touch your Rolex.

Maybe you need a NATO strap

There is a limit on size of the photo if you are trying to attach it using the Forum bandwidth..

Any outside service, photobucket/flikr, will attach just fine..

Also, where at on your wrist are you wearing the watch? Behind your wrist bone or in front?

My wrist is 7". I have 5 links on the 6 o'clock side and 6 links on the 12 o'clock side.

Here are my pics.

No those aren't scratches on the bracelet just smudge

I see that you counted that 'half link' in the clasp, if I counted that on my DSSD, it will be 7 links on 12 o'clock side and 4 on 6 o'clock side.
You may want to try moving a link over to 12 o'clock side and adjust the glidelock.

[Marianoz]

I set less links at 6 o'clock than at 12, therefore the clasp is off center and the watch face sits off centered towards me. Makes it easier to look at the time...or the watch just to admire!

It was actually my AD's suggestion to configure my SubC like that and I really like it. It did take some time to get used to...
