Question about the length of watch chain

Hi, Everyone.

I have TT Sub and when I wear it, it lean toward 12 o'clock.

It's really nuisance.

Watch chain remain 4 on 6 o'clock way and remain 5 on 12 o'clock way.

What should I do to prevent leaning?

Thanks:)

Do you mean the case tends to gravitate towards the outside of your wrist? This is normal, especially if worn a little loose. Try adjusting it a little more snug. If it's already adjusted as tight as it will go removing a link and starting over with the adjustment may work.

With only 9 links I assume you have a small wrist?

Turning the clasp around sometimes helps.

Question about the length of watch chain

Could try 4 links on each side to balance it a bit?

I am not familiar with the 16613, but the 116613 and any other Sub with the glidelock should be very easy to get a prefect fit. I cannot remember what was originally configured, but my wrist is a hair over 7" and I have two full removable links ON the bracelet at the 6 side and two full removable links and only one half link on the 12 side. This leaves me about center on adjustment for the glidelock on most days and has the watch case and clasp sitting perfect center on the top and bottom. Hope I explained that well.

Do the 16610 and 16613 have the same two half links that the 116610 and 116613 have?

Rolex is a heavy watch.. Unless you wear it tight it will always rotate to the outside of the wrist

I center the watch itself on the top of my wrist and then hold it there with my finger, flip my wrist over and make sure the clasp is centered on the bottom of my arm properly (not the rolex emblem or clasp cover, but the clasp underneath). That is how it should sit, if it is not centered take out links or adjust it so that the clasp sits centered. I see people all the time with them not fitted correctly. A good AD will do it and show you how as well.

These links give pretty good detail;
