Re: Just Bought a Seamaster Professional

Donn offered some very good advice if you want to try to achieve a more perfect fit. I do think Omega should try to develop a clasp with a fine adjustment setting. I just bought a Tissot (owned by Omega's parent company), and it comes with a double sided, push button deployment clasp with two holes in it for fine adjustment. If a $395 Tissot can have this feature, why can't an Omega?

One thing I want to add - you should ALWAYS err on the side of too loose rather than too tight. A watch that is too tight is putting extra stress on the links and can cause you pain when your wrist swells as you perspire. If the watch is a little loose you are giving yourself a cushion for those times when the heat and humidity are high, and you aren't adding extra stress to the links.
