5711 Bracelet Half Link - Need Micro Adjust - Any other suggestions?

I have a modded 3KF 5711 that I absolutely love. Recently, I lost a bit of weight, and now I’m in that frustrating spot where removing one link makes the bracelet a little too snug, but adding it back makes it too loose. From what I’ve read, none of the rep factories currently offer a 1.5 or 0.5 link option.

I’ve been considering swapping to the newer 5811 clasp, as I prefer the deployant design and it looks like it has a built-in micro-adjustment mechanism that could help fine-tune the fit.

Just wondering, has anyone else found a good solution for this? Would love to hear any tips or experiences.

5811 clasp is so so much better than than 5711 one. I switched my 5711 over and it's like a whole new level of wearing comfort (and yes it has micro adjust). I now call my watch a 5711+

Any pointers to where to get the 5811 clasp? My Super Frankin 3KF 5711 feels incomplete with the standard clasp.

Same here. Mine feels less than ideal without the new clasp.

I haven't had any luck sourcing one. My TD says the wait is very long for the 5811 clasp :(

Ask around with various TDs, some might not be able to get it but some may. That's how I got mine. Worst case just buy a full 5811/5712 bracelet, they both fit.
