The Breitling Watch Source Forums

this may sound like a stupid question as i imagine comfort is the ultimate decider... but where should the clasp sit on the bottom of the wrist? right in the middle? i wonder because the AD fit the watch, but then i read the article about how the 6 o'clock side should be a little longer than the 12 o'clock side. the way mine sits now seems comfortable but odd as the inside of the DB makes the 12 o'clock side of the bracelet stick out a little... let me know if that isn't clear as re-reading it almost confuses me a little...

thanks

Ross

Mines pretty much on the middle. I did remove one link on the SA's Pro II, but it's still pretty darned close to being centered.

Comfort is the ultimate decider, so there is no official right or wrong way to wear it. However the Breitling bracelet clasp is actually designed to be offset (or biased) to one side slightly, which is in cotrast to just about every other bracelet clasp out there, so if you are finding your bracelet uncomfortable, try removing a link from one side and putting it in the other. One of the guys took a few pics to show this a year or so back, but I don't have it to hand.

I don't remember the exact post for that either, but if you search the forum for "adjust bracelet" and look maybe a year back you should find a rather large post with a lot of pics. Meanwhile, here are some info from the main site of breitlingsource:

Thanks, to both of you guys for responding, I had read the article on bias before and watched the video on how to do it... unfortunately I can't get any shorter on the 6 o'clock side as it's already down to the last screwable link... but i found the thread you were mentioning... just in case anyone see this post looking for the answer to the same question here is the link to the older thread..
