Pelagos Bracelet Fit Question...

Post by Aaron Shapiro » Sun Mar 19, 2017 7:20 pm

Anyone have fit problem with the Pelagos? With mine, I'm kinda between links. I'm all the way out on the adjustable clasp...and it's a hair too tight on warmer days (which we're about to move into) but when I add a link and tighten the strap all the way down, it's too big. A half-link would be perfection in this case.... is that an option?


Apart from the bracelet fit, I LOVE the watch...

Wouldn't this have the opposite effect? I am left handed....

You will fill in the space with the extra link.

I had the same issue on both the Pelagos I owned. Bugged the heck out of me. Like you, loved the watch.

Had the same issue. Ended up selling it b/c the fit issue drove me nuts.

Yep, just moved it. Great watch... a half link would have solved it for me.

I have a heritage chrono and a pelagos and have the same issue with both. It bugs me - but not enough to sell. I've stuck a piece of moleskin on the caseback or on the inside of the clasp and that helps.

I always thought it was odd that they came out with this tricked up clasp with all the cool features and overlooked the most basic thing...

Try playing with clasp placement. Move a link from one side to the other. Oddly enough, sometimes it works.
