I’m sure you realize this by now, but the half links are not 1/2 the length of a whole link. They’re actually a little longer. It took me a while to figure out that one whole link was shorter than two half links. With this mindset and some fiddling around I was able to dial-in a good fit on my Aqua Terra: 7.75” wrist, eight whole links on the 12 o’clock side, seven whole links on the six o’clock side. All the half links ended up unused.
Similar to your situation, I bought a blue AT 38 in February, but based on the colors in my collection I also wish I had gotten white. If anybody out there made the opposite “mistake“ and wants to trade, let me know. I have the bracelet and the blue rubber strap. Sorry to steal your airtime, but I hope my bracelet advice helps.
