I ordered a 41 Mm ARF Jubilee Flt 904LYG/SS Asia 2824 from TT. Andrew has been great, but my wrist is 18.75cm (7.3in) will it fit out of the box? What do you guys recommend I do if it doesn’t fit ? Looked great and GL’d today. Is this something I can do myself, either adding or subtracting links to make it fit? Thanks guys

If you can use an eyeglass screwdriver, you should be able to size a Rolex bracelet yourself.

Please don't buy cheep Amazon drivers. There is no better brand of driver than Horotec and Esslinger will sell you a basic set of those for 22 bucks, add a set of spare blades and postage and it still comes out under 30 bucks or so. Quality tools will last abnd won't wreck your watch. https://www.esslinger.com/horotec-pr...-style-blades/
Add a cheap loupe for under 3 bucks: https://www.esslinger.com/jewelry-lo...-choose-power/ If your eyes are good a 3x will do nicely, the higher the power the smaller the focal length (ie: how far it is from the work wen in focus) so don't go too high.
Throw in a spring bar tool (and spare tip set) and you have everything 90% of folk will ever need. https://www.esslinger.com/horotec-fu...ring-bar-tool/
If you buy Omegas add a pin punch set as well. https://www.esslinger.com/horotec-se...80-and-1-00mm/

The tools are cheap and then you have what you need for your next bracelet adjustmentLast edited by scottiedog; 13-10-20, 08:35.

If the watch is to big go to a mall with a watch kiosk. It will only take a few minutes. After you see how it is done you can buy a couple tools and do it yourself. Don’t go to a store that sells Gen’s.

Update: Andrew said it should fit, if it’s a LITTLE big no problem. Maybe shouldn’t have posted in new members, sorry mods.
