Think this has to be one of my fav's, not really had it off since I got it.
It sit's a little high on my wrist though, any tips to remedy this other than continually fixing it. (when I say high, I mean to the outter side, and I like it sitting lower/inner side of the wrist).
I dont know if it makes a diff, I wear it on my right wrist.
Thanks
Dave

I've got the perfect solution . . . . send it to me for adjustment. If I can't fix it, I'll gladly dispose of it for you so you won't have to go to the trouble!

Thanks Dave Have a link added to one side of the bracelet and remove the a link on the other side. It's just unbalanced. When you hold the watch out of your hand with the clasp closed, hold the watch by the clasp as parallel to the ground as possible. Ideally, the watch face should be more or less parallel to the ground too. If one side is off that's usually okay, but in your case it might be too biased on one side. It can also be that you wear your bracelet too loose. You might need just a small amount of tightening (through micro-adjustment or removal of one link). HTH.

Actually, I was just trying to get him on my side... then I was going to PM him the same solution you gave

My MM doesn't get much wrist time, it's definitely not my favorite. It could be the shape of your wrist, in conjunction with the case height. Mine sits a bit high as well, but I wear my fairly loose on it's original bracelet.

Absolutely loved the MM dial/hand visual appearance....But, absolutely hated the way that the case sat on my wrist no matter how much I played around with the bracelet adjustments. In the end and conversely, I loved the way a SBDC Sumo wore.....So I basically merged the two into a piece that I truly love to wear. Got rid of the Marine Master shortly after the photo was taken a few years back......still have the modded Sumo

To get the MM to sit right on my wrist I had to have even links on each side, I think it was 5 on one side and 7 on the other.

I guess I got lucky. I had the store remove one link on the used MM and it was perfect fit! I was amazed. It sits high and heavy but I soon got used to that. Some of my other watches do slip to the outer side, and I just tighten up the leather strap one hole. Most of my bracelet watches are fitted to feel slightly tight. If you are using the rubber strap then tighten it up one hole or make another hole!

One other thing if you the clasp is too big you can use a Shogun or Monster clasp
