Need help adjusting my watch!

hello! I'm a new member and just got a Rolex watch last night. I was able to adjust the thicker metal parts (not sure what to call them, I'm a watch/rolex noob) and it's still somewhat loose on my wrist :(

I'm a 19 year old male and it seems these watches were made for men. But I did notice that I can still adjust it.



That is my watch



The part circled is the area where you clip the watch....and there are little circles there and these can be adjusted as well.

how do I adjust these? I'm pretty sure I have the tools to do it. I adjusted the other parts and removed the screws and what not easily, but the watch is still loose.

any help?

The case back on that "daytona" looks completely wrong... have you been shopping on eBay?

It looks like a "Daytona 24hr" special.

I have a bad feeling your Rolex may actually be a Folex

I didn't pay for it. It was given to me as a gift. I'm pretty positive it isn't fake. I can see people getting the "fake" impression due to the low quality camera phone pics, but I don't have my real cam.

When I do I'll post a question asking if it is indeed a fake.

Damn it, you guys have me worried now. i don't want to sport a fake rolex :(

I'm pretty sure the watch is not a fake. I did not pay for it, if you guys are wondering. I got it as a gift. The crappy camera phone pic might give off the impression that it is a fake, but I'm sure it isn't. Once I get a better (I mean real camera) I'll post pics and let you guys be the judge.
