15400 bracelet size
Hello. I have a silver dial RO incoming and I was wondering if any of you gents could help me with the bracelet size. My wrist is a tad over 7 about 7.2. So my question is how many links will need to be removed from the original full bracelet? The seller is willing to size it for me which is a great help. FYI I have 2 links removed on a full Rolex oyster bracelet if that helps. Anyone out there with a similar wrist size can offer a suggestion that would be awesome!
