LW bracelet

[Sappie66]

I have a One on order with a steel bracelet, but after trying a friend's LW 3-Timer with bracelet, I have been thrown into a minor panic.

As you know, the bracelet's design is such that the extent that it can curve down from the lugs (if one can use that term for LWs) to meet the wrist is limited. Upon trying my friend's LW, I noted that there was a slim gap between the bracelet and my wrist at the point where the bracelet leaves the lugs (both sides) -- in other words, it doesn't hug my wrist that point. My friend's wrist is considerably larger than mine, so of course the bracelet was not adjusted for me.

I wear my watches snug so that they won't move about, so that I could fit little more than my pinky finger between my wrist and bracelet.

So my question is, once adjusted, does this bracelet have a chance of working for me despite the gap? Would the watch move about?

I note that there are some similar-size wrists here wearing bracelets. Does anyone have this issue and did the bracelet work for you?

Thanks.

Bracelet is fine for me at just over a ''6.5 wrist and we may have similar wearing style as I leave a gap so the watch can fit loosely and proper for my wrist, for sure no ill-movement. It works well whichever LW its on from my experience its very versatile.

But do you have the aforementioned gaps where the bracelet leaves the watch?

Hi, not sure what gaps you're referring to?

I'm 6.5", fits snug, all but one link on the bracelet.
No gaps or spacing, fits almost perfectly on my small wrist.

Hope that helps.

No odd spaces for me there, I know what you are asking as Ive tried on many a watch with this problem as the vertical dimension was too large.

It sits perfectly flat and hugs my wrist as it should in a resting position with the excess slack at the bottom. I think LW does this well as result of the case design, theres just enough room to edge a finger in. (Ill add pics if I get some uploaded)

As you wrote if your problem stems from trying on your friends it may be as you mentioned because of the oversizing of the bracelet compared to how it'd be with links out on yours.

Got this pic up, same fit as sharkfin, Ive been happy with it since the moment I purchased it.

Yours looks great Shark!

To describe the gaps I refer to, firstly, the endlinks of the bracelet (where it meets the case) do not swivel down enough towards the wrist so that the second links (from the endlinks) do not sit flush to my wrist. If my wrist is the same size as yours, it could be a function of wrist shape I suppose.

I was just wondering if other small-wristed and similarly-shaped-wristed guys still find that the bracelet works for them. ;)

I guess I will hope for the best once I receive it.

Nice combo, is that the Hard Grey on the bracelet?

Preciate the remark, good eye, you got it 100%. (Hard Grey on bracelet w/normal screws) I was wearing it on the HBII leather but takes a moment to switch so I took made the example.

Agree there have been some discussions on this model in the past but only one live photo had been posted by helly 1080 prior to this in the following thread:
