YM Bracelet diameter
Hi Everyone, I have not given my husband his YM yet, and probably won't for a while yet. But, I was reading somewhere about having to add extra links to the bracelet for bigger guys. The watch is not anywhere close where I can measure it. What size does the watch come and how do I order more links if I need to ahead of time? i don't want to give it to him and then make him wait for it to be sized. He is a big man (to me) 6'1 and 205lbs. Although I guess all that matters is the wrist sizeThanks, Rebecca

What is the best length of time (days) to track accuracy? A couple of days, 5 days, a week or more? As I understand it I should be looking for consistency along with actual accuracy, correct?

I gave it a good handwind 24 hours prior to the Day 1 reading. Here's what I'm seeing in seconds lost. Day 1 = -11Day 2 = -9Day 3 = -16Day 4 = -13 Should I go more than 4 days? I'm really missing my other watches.

Sent it in for fixing
Finally found and independent Omega specialist that may be able to repair my father's watch.Crossing my fingers...
