Proper Band Fitting
Newbie here and have what is probably a basic question but here I go. What is the proper fitting for a Rolex band? I was reading a thread (can't remember where but it was on this site) where they recommended a "snug" fit vs. loose. Said it was better for the band. When I had mine sized I had them keep it loose, just feels better to me. Should I go back and have them take a link out?
Thanks! |

A little loose so you can stick your index finger between the wrist and the bracelet... I think that is perfect for all weather conditions...

There should be less links on the 6 side vs. the 12 side, so the clasp centers on the wrist better. And, I agree with the allowance for a finger (pinky for me) clearance between the bracelet and wrist.

Exactly as Eduardo said above-nice and snug.
