: Better slightly
: large than too tight,

I certainly agree. But I'd also like some way (like on Rolex bracelets which as I recall are adjustable in 3 half link steps without adding/removing links) to change the size without advanced tools, as you may swell more if you go to a warmer climate.

: You should NOT size the bracelet so that the
: watch stays in the same place on your wrist.
: That is too tight for a metal bracelet as it
: does not allow enough room for your arm to
: flex without straining against the rigid
: bracelet. This is very bad for your arm.

I think this has a lot to do with how your arm looks. I went around many years with a bracelet which didn't slide nor rotate because it was just the right size and it didn't impair motion in the least, so it can be done, and he may have been used to it too and expects the same from an Omega bracelet. But they are a bit different, possibly designed with slightly different use philosophies.
