    That last photo injured my own left wrist.

    But there is hope @WatchCheck

    Go ahead and move your clasp adjustment all the way to the right. Hopefully you’ll regain feeling in your fingers :thumbsup: (all in good fun - nice watch)

    Last wrist shot picture is a symptom of all the Festive Season indulgences. Time for the gym for 2020 :) Loads of room for bracelet adjustment either way.

    Thanks. It's my little 3 year old daughter Darcey, who my wife caught examining some of Daddy's watches with an eyepiece. Note the intensity of her left eye. A one in a million photo. :)

    Really fantastic piece, and a marvellous boon from Horus. Don't ever sell it, lest you incur their displeasure :0
