Omega Aqua Terra Bracelet Feels Uneven - Fitment Help

Hi everyone,

I’ve had this Omega for about 3 months (bought in April). Currently sized with 11 links on the 6 o’clock side and 12 links on the 12 o’clock side.

When I wear it, I notice a slight “bump” or pressure around the 6 o’clock side, and the clasp sits a bit off-center on the underside of my wrist (photos attached). The watch head also feels slightly skewed.

I’m thinking of moving one link from the 6 side to the 12 side (making it 10 on 6 / 13 on 12) to better center the clasp and reduce the pressure. Does that sound like the right move, or would you leave it as is / try something else?

Any advice from people who’ve dealt with similar fit issues would be really appreciated. Thanks!

A big watch on a smaller wrist is always a challenge to get just right.
I try to get the clasp centred on the inside of my wrist, that is, the "stiff part" of the clasp. Then pull the watch up and see where links need to go.
Either remove one or move one to the other side. It takes a bit of trial and error, and I my case it doesn't have to be perfect as I wear my bracelet watches a lot looser than the general population.

I would remove the bracelet and with the head not attached, position the clasp where it feels more comfortable on your wrist. Don't pay any attention to where the clasp opens up when finding the right position. Just how the inside part feels on your wrist. Once you find it sitting evenly on the underside of your wrist, mark the position in some way on your wrist. Then attach the bracelet and put the watch head where you want it and then move the links until you get the clasp in the right place that's marked on the underside of your wrist.
