I recently purchased an AS and really do love the watch, but one thing I noticed is that the clasp on the bracelet does not close very easily. It seems to be slightly misaligned every time I close the clasp, resulting in an overlap of the clasp edges and then I have to take more time to align the clasp before securing it. It seems like there is too much side to side play in it or something...not sure.
Now I don't have alot of other Lings, just me Herc, but the Herc's clasp seems more stout and very precise when closing it...as with other watches I have.
Any thoughts or similar experiences with this?

I had a Superocean with bracelet for over 10 years, then a Steelfish with PRO II, and never knew such a problem.
The bracelets are great, and worth about 500 bucks on their own. Sounds like a part is bent or something.
I would definitely take it to an AD and have it looked at professionally.
Cheers,
Carl
