: Thanks to the advice from the people on this
: forum and others, I have just purchased an
: Omega Seamaster Chronometer (Full Size).
: Many thanks it was a tough decision as this
: is my FIRST Swiss Watch, but thanks to the
: helpful people here it has made it very
: easy. Just a few questions about it though;

: 1). The bracelet sizing, should it be sized to
: allow your index finger to slip between the
: gap near the clasp and the wrist or should
: it be smaller?

Jimmy, size the bracelet so that it's comfortable for you. I wear my watches a tad loose so that they slide up my arm but do not roll over. This helps in the hotter months when your body expands some. make sure if you have an uneven amount of links that the extra goes on the 12 o'clock side.

: 2). Should the crown be screwed until its tight
: or just when it stops screwing in when using
: a slight twist?

Just a tad tighter when you feel it stop...but do not over tighten.

: 3). What positions do you need to use to get
: the -4 +6 specifications?

Experiment at night with different posiitons.

: 4). Do you need to change the date if a month
: has 30 days?

Yes & EJOY!!!

: I know simple questions but your help is muchly
: appreciated.

: Oh yeah it feels great to own a Swiss Watch the
: quality is really there when you look at it.

: Regards
