| Post subject: | Question on Ocean Racer sizing |
hi guys i am getting ready to order the b01, I want to get it with ocean racer bracelet. only problem is that i have a really small wrist and it measures 14.5 mm. I took off all links on my avenger skyland with pro2 link and it was still a little loose. so I want to know if the b01 with ocean racer bracelet could be cut to fit my tiny wrist. also can that bracelet be ordered in smaller size? |

Do you mean 14.5 cm, or about 5.7 inches? I have a pretty small wrist at between 6.25 and 6.50 inches and I wear my Steelfish on an Ocean Racer. Cut to fit me, the rubber strap has two empty holes on each side (to be precise, 3 empty holes on each side, one of which is used by a springbar leaving 2 empty when the watch is worn); the holes are nearly 1/4" apart meaning that I could still "shrink" my strap by almost 1/2" on each side for a total of close to 1" more in adjustment. Taking all that into account, along with the adjustment in the clasp itself, I believe the strap can be made to fit you, with room to spare. When I reviewed the Ocean Racer when it first became available in 22mm, I think I commented on the fact that the strap could be cut down to fit a really small wrist. Unless the design of the strap has changed from my early version, that should still hold true. |

My wife wears an OR with approximately 6" wrists and there are still plenty of links left. |
