Dude, I had those bites on e side of the wrist like you too. In fact, it's very irritating. Anyway, my 2nd pic shows those unpleasant-looking compression prints left on my wrist. Reason can be a few... Too tight or my wrist has swell due to weather n body temp. In fact, on e Seiko SRP043. I should be wearing on 2hole located on e 4hole clasp. If u see carefully my 1st pic, I'm wearing on e 1st hole which is very fitting. Watch head sits firmly on my wrist but bad for blood circulation. "Laughs"...

Gd luck trying .... :roll:

Following on oOsIMm's explanation on the pins & collars, this is a good visual guide to use:

my wrist small..
mine is i treat extension as another link and i center the clasp. on my monster, just nice very comfy but no room for expansion

but on another watch, same number of links and position doesn't work, dive extension side a little longer, fit is looser, can feel it dig as it moves about.
i even tried taking out the "unremovable" links @ the extension side, but looks too weird so put back....

end up switch to rubber

oOsiMm wrote:Do not lose the 2 small 'collars'...without these small ones(every link and pin will come with a collar),you cannot hold your bracelet pins in place. one for each bracelet pin is enough.

For your bracelets links,they are 2 sides(indicated by arrow on reverse) and one hole would be slightly bigger than the other. This 'collars' can pass thru one hole but not the other. means it acts as a retainer and holds your bracelet pin in place and watch secured to your wrist.

When the bracelet pin(with collar fixed) is inserted into the links correctly(opposite of arrow),it will be fitting and size will be just right. In order to fit the pin well .you need to use the resizing tool with small hammer.

If the collar isnt fixed,the pin can be easily pushed into and through the hole with just a small needle/resizing tool which is incorrect.
1 of my link, I have the collar pin in.. But I can still push it through using a paper clip with enough force. Is it correct?
