    YG DD40 collected today

    Hi all. Picked this cracker up today.
    Very happy with it. The lady took 2 links out
    I’m wondering if she took 2 out one side. The watch
    Seems to sit a bit one sided ?
    Anyway here’s some pics. It’s a stunning watch in the flesh.
    Quite a chunk of precious metal. Love the dial and gold Roman numerals

    Looks a cracker. 2 links out of the 6 o’clock would be the way to go at first, but everyone’s wrist is different so I would go back if it doesn’t feel balanced. I’m sure you know a correct fit makes all the difference.

    A lovely watch! Congrats! As there is no fine adjustment on the DD, if it’s not a perfect fit it will be slightly tight, or slightly loose. I would go with the latter to allow for wrists swelling.

    I am after the rose gold version, but the wait seems to be going for ever! Congrats again!

    Hard to tell. Can you do photo 7 but with the clasp closed? The clasp and watch should be parallel. Pain the the butt to get the DD perfectly fitted but worth the effort (even if you have to buy 1.25 links) because when it fits like a glove it is super comfy.

    Congrats. Impressive watch!

    My friend has one with champagne dial and he borrowed it to me. I took a few shots of it.

    If you don't feel it sits correctly take it back and adjust the bracelet accordingly.

    I wore mine for a year before messing around with it to allow for seasonal changes in temperature and diet. Your’s is close enough to perfect that you wouldn’t want to mess around so long as it feels as good as it looks.

    I have 11 each side, so one removed.

    The clasp crown sits central and is very comfortable, but the clasp is obviously further over to the lateral side of my wrist. So I think I may swap a couple of links to the 12 side and see how it feels.
