    Stupid question re sizing a mesh bracelet?

    Hi All,
    Thinking of getting a mesh bracelet for my diver and as I have never had one I wonder, how do you size the bracelet if there are no links to remove? I know that some of the meshes do have a few removable links near the clasp for adjustment, but others do not. In the ones that don't have removable links, how are the meshes sized, and is it a one-time deal -- like cutting a rubber bracelet?
    Thanks in advance for your answers.

    The best method I've found is to use a Dremel tool (or something similar) to remove each ring within the row of mesh. Sounds tedious, and it can be, but not impossible. Just be very sure where you're cutting; those puppies are not going back on once you've cut them ...

    Some of them have removable links. Some of them you have to buy a version that is very close to the right size, then t has a tiny bit of adjustment like a conventional bracelet. Then there is the tungchoy one at the link below that has a really large amount of adjustment without the ugliness of links, and as a bonus it has the cool Omega style clasp. I recommend it, I've got one.
