Maybe it's because of the hollow end links or maybe my wrist size. Guys with bigger wrist size doesn't seem to have this problem. I have a 6.75 inch wrist and this seems to be a smaller wrist size problem. I've read in other forums of guys taking extreme measures such as removing a permanent link on the 6 o'clock side and adding an extra removeable link on the 12 o'clock side to correct the issue. That seems harsh since you can't restore the bracelet to original state. But I don`t have this issue with 114270...maybe because of solid end links. I've owned a tritium dial and swiss only dial 14270 and same problem. But i'm loving the black leather strap now.
