About to order this! Just worried about wrist size. I have a 7.5 inch (19.05cm) wrist size so pretty sure it won't fit me at all. I have some extra links from my ARF Sub. Wondering if I can fit it in here? I am ordering it from Li and from another post I saw here, it is about 90+ for a longer oysterflex.

Thanks! Eric from Geektime said he can ask for a longer strap from ARF. Stock is one long and one short strap. But ARF seems to provide 2 long straps (on either side of the watch case) for bigger wrist sizes. Eric said there will be no additional costs either so I will go with that!

I payed for VSF 126610 LV 3 weeks ago and it still didn’t get shipped. It took over 2 weeks to get qc.
Things are moving much slower after CNY.

A difficult watch to change the strap...
I managed to fit a 22mm on the 21mm lug width Yachtmaster 42.
I think it looks pretty nice (I'm not liking the way the OysterFlex is aging).

Anyone knows if any SS bracelet would fit?

Only if it is a 21mm SS standard bracelet.
But I don't think it will look good on a SS bracelet, because this watch has the lug holes in a very recessed position.
Only thicker straps will look good in it.
I've tried a metal mesh bracelet, like this one and didn't like the result at all...
Try a Rubber strap or a leather strap.
You can buy a 22mm (there's plenty of options) and squeze the bracelet until it fits the 21mm lug width.
On that pic, I'm using a 22mm Longines strap, that came with my Legend Diver.

What clasp / buckle it goes with?

I use it with the Longines Buckle...
I've also ordered this vulcanized rubber Zuludiver 22mm, with 21mm spring bars.
I think it will also look great on the YM.

It's here, the new rubber strap.
it's so good that I think this is it...
It sits flusher on the wrist, it's amazingly comfortable and soft and it has that pattern that imprints some classic style to the watch and a sport look at the same time.
The fit is perfect, with the Rolex 21mm spring bars (this strap is a 22mm lug width).
