Speedmaster 3861 bracelet sizing

When wearing my Speedmaster, 300M, or PO, I adjust the comfort setting in the morning and throughout the day as needed, depending on the air temperature or whether I am exercising, etc. Honestly, I am grateful for this feature and am not concerned about any minor markings.

Once a bracelet is sized I never need to adjust it, but I'm older and stuff doesn't expand or contract as much as you age. 😎

My experience is that I rarely use the micro adjust; I onLy have to use it if I am exercising in the heat/humidity during the summer, and then I usually wear the Seamaster. However, I also don’t mind if the bracelet is a little loose in the morning before my wrist swells. I know some people can’t stand that, so in that case, I’d expect they would use the micro adjust more frequently.

FWIW, Unclestraps does sell a “half-link” for the bracelet (really a 1.5 link). You might see if that helps. I tried it, but didn’t like it because the two parts are rigid and not flexible between the 1 and 1/2 link.

Yep, but I've just been leaving it loose rather than keep adjusting it.
