I finally got around to sizing the bracelet on my Kingston and it was not for the faint-of-heart or impatient! The faux-rivet style looks great, but some of these tiny "rivets" are actually screws. Not only are they small, 1.2 mm in width, but you need to hold the opposite screw head while turning the other one since they are screwed onto each other. This usually takes 3 hands...
So on Saturday I spent 2, yes two, hours sizing the bracelet. Six links on each side. After wearing the watch on Sunday, I found that it didn't balance correctly on my wrist so tonight I spent another hour resizing it; actually rearranging the links so that it is now 5 links on the six o'clock side and 7 links on the 12 o'clock side. Much better balance with this configuration.
For those that are wondering, the Kingston is MkII's homage to the Rolex Submariner ref. 6538.
Enough with the talk. Here's the lates iPhone 3GS "grainy-style" pic.
