Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
Case 64 — Bracelet fit: half-links, micro-adjust holes and the 'between sizes' problem · source wording exercise
Correction note for “Bracelet fit: half-links, micro-adjust holes and the 'between sizes' problem”: retain the wording beginning “Fit often improves by moving one link from the 6 o'clock…” in the record. If later material changes it, add the date, the changed wording and the source for that change; do not invent a completed correction here. Retain the source wording beside any paraphrase.
Check whether a compatible half-link exists for the exact bracelet reference. Compatibility involves the connection and hardware, not just width. Ask a watchmaker if the correct part is uncertain.
