Curious how many other of y'all have had to add links back into your watch bracelets here in the blazing summer heat?

I had planned to wear the SRP637 my wife gave me for xmas today... as she was off today and we spent the day together... but went to put it on and it was about cutting the circulation to my hand off.

sooo... SRP777 on NATO it was... but got home and added a link back in... and can wear the 637 now.. hopefully my wrist doesn't get too much bigger only have two links left :)

I thought I am being paranoid moving the adjustment pin all the time back and forth View attachment 8955882 Usually I dont have to remove links so its just moving the pin position.
well if I'm honest I probably took one to many links out when I got the watch... It worked ok before it got so hot ..but it was at the last micro adjustment to fit my wrist before...

Like Strmwatch, I tend to wear my bracelets a little on the loose side because I'm used to my wrists swelling in the heat. When my wrists are at their normal size, I just wear the watch higher off the wristbone.

I've definitely been fiddling with the adjustment pins in the heat. In fact, I've even taken to leaving my butterfly claps half open and having the watch dangling and swinging around freely. Gives a lot of good ventilation to help all that sweat evaporate. Gotta let that sweet sweet breeze flow in!

Heat is the norm here in Houston, so the bracelets are sized to accommodate that in the first place. There are a few days around December or January when the watches wear a bit looser than usual, but it doesn't last long.
