Jacob - back at home and used a flat ruler beneath the case (unscientific, I know) and it measured 48mm lug to lug, hope that helps

Thanks, Dave......having a hard time getting it off the wrist, it's happened only one day since it was unboxed, and then back on after I got back home.

Mike - are you having any issues getting yours sized correctly? If I have one link removed and the adjustment fully in, it's a bit loose. However, if I take out another link and move the clasp adjustment to the loosest setting or leave it in variable, it's a bit tight. I wish they had a half link but I've read that Tudor doesn't make one.

Looks great on the pics. Nice write up. If I was gonna get a Tudor, this would be it.
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.

I got lucky with the bracelet sizing, after playing around I found for me it is one link out and the micro adjustment on 1 (the shortest) and it is just the way I like it (just a fraction loose - no bracelet marks on the skin at the end of the day, but no spinning around either)

But yes and to your point, I think half links should be standard issue.

Beautiful solution, That looks great, Art - I haven't tried the rubber or NATO's yet, which is odd for me, the bracelet is pretty comfortable.

Yeah...I have mine sized the same way now. It's just a little looser than I like though. If I try, I can get the watch to rotate all the way around my wrist. Remove one more link and adjust the clasp out and it's too tight; I had the Tudor logo from the inside of the clasp imprinted on my wrist after I left the gym. Ugh!

Panerai7 - That is a good looking NATO! Where did you get that one?
