Hello

I just bought the date just Rolex mother of pearl 31mm and I guessed my wrist size is about 14.5com. I had 5 links removed but it seem little tight. Do you wear your Rolex loose or tight and how many links you had removed?

I don't remember how many links but I do remember them having to do it in a balanced way, not just from one side.

The general rule for safekeeping of the dial is to have it fit on the snug side. And that's how I wear mine. I have no doubt some people here wear it baggy for fashion reasons (mainly bc celebs or influencers are photo'd that way). However, this ups the chance that you could damage the crystal or even the metal by having it bang into other jewelry or anything else.

The Rolex Boutique watchman measured our wrists, the smallest part, and went from there. The outcome is, it falls just right after the protruding bony part of the wrists. However, if you prefer it higher up or looser, the watchman will take that into consideration as well. 😊
