    Correct, it's closer to being ¾.

    I'm doing some research here and having a hard time finding a place that might be able to offer a half link in the states... I've hit up Ofrei and will see what they say. Would you mind PMing me a UK source if you have one? I try to avoid international shipping if possible but I'll do it for an illusive half link

    The smaller links are really 2/3rds links. With two of the small guys it's perfect for me, and it's probably the most comfortable bracelet I've ever worn. I'm in the US and bought from Ofrei, Cousins is in the UK.

    The part for the 42mm 2500 PO is 115ST1580

    sweet I found the right one then

    Question do you do one half on either side or both half links on one side of the bracelet?

    I got my 1/2 links from Ofrei also, work great. I think the size ratio is similar to the SMP bracelet, where 1/2/3 maybe needed based on exact size requirement....I have a size/link chart but can't seem to find it.

    Try the new Hirsch Preformance straps for a sporty look too, very comfortable and high quality.

    They come in a variety of colors, and different styles(Carbon, sailcloth, Alligator)....waterproof & 2 year warranty....I get mine from Amy @ globalwatchstraps in the US.

    Entirely up to you; but for me, the 'right' position of the clasp on my wrist dictated where they went.

    I'm not much of a strap fan; but have to admit they look rather good.

    Nice watch, congrats!

    What's the current situation with the bracelet, do you have both half (two-third) links that come standard with the bracelet? And spare full links? If so you shouldn't need an extra half link. If it's too short with both half links on the bracelet add a full link and remove one half link. Having a third half link doesn't give you any additional combination options as far as my feeble mind can figure. .

    I only have one half link. But I ordered a second one
