So I am hunting for a couple links for this President bracelet, but I'm realizing it will not solve my problem. Due to it being lopsided, it sits a bit weird on my wrist. But even if I do find a couple links, it will still be lopsided, since it actually fits me now. If I could take links off the 6:00 side now, and add them to the 12:00 side...problem solved. I'm not sure why they have so many fixed links on the 12:00 side, if a couple of those were adjustable...I'd be home free.

Couldn't you pop out the split pins (not springbar) on the last removable link on each side that the clasp mounts to and remove the clasp.
Swap the 12 o'clock side and 6 o'clock side bracelet halves.
Reinstall last removable link that holds the clasp in the same orientation it was before.

They look like they are wrapped links and not solid. It takes a bit of finesse , but you could open the links up and remove them that way. I've done it before and its turned out good.

Tim The yachtsman president bracelets use small 9mm springbars for securing the removable centerlinks. You need to insert a pushpin tool into each side and depress them both at the same time.
The outer ends are solid construction but the center links are folded with an insert within to center the springbar
