Hi All

Quick query on the micro adjust on the Bader.

The middle slot on the clasp refuses to hold, whilst there is an audible click and hold it slips out immediately under the slightest of pressure which is unfortunate as it is the ideal setting for me..the other 2 slots hold well. The middle slot also appears to be in a natural press and release position when placed on the the wrist ie when closed the release button is triggered.

Can anyone advise on the number of positions to confirm that this is an actual setting?

Edit - tried to add a video but failed...

Thanks in advance.

I've not got a bracelet with the same clasp as yours, but have handled one in the past.

I'm pretty sure to say there are five positions on the micro-adjustment and if it won't hold when you're testing it i.e. it's not being worn, there's likely an issue with it.

If it were me, I'd contact CW and ask if you may return the bracelet, on it's own, and for them to please take a look at it.

PS> a thought whilst typing the above, it might be worth trying a drop or two of light machine oil on the push button mechanism, to lubricate and ease it, in case it's a simple case of something sticking.

Thanks, appreciate the response.

I'd been thinking about this and resolved to try to help so...

1. Grabbed my Lumiere and flipped the bader bracelet downsides up and quickly established that, unlike previous iterations of on-the-fly adjustment clasps you can't see "teeth" so next I went to the CW listing on their website.

2. Which describes 6mm of adjustment without revealing how many increments this involves so back to the watch

3. And by dint of the technique of depressing the button until the bracelet will j-u-s-t move, releasing the button and applying a gentle pull to the bracelet and repeating this twice in both directions I'm prepared to report that, in addition to the "full in" and "full out" positions, there are two intermediate positions giving a total of four positions.

@ColS you report only three steps and you report the intermediate one doesn't hold and you show a different watch. I'm quite prepared to believe that CW have more than one iteration of bracelet with this clasp but does yours provide 6mm of travel?

I don't believe I'm helping other than helping to muddy the waters but I'm with @Bahnstormer_vRS - if the clasp doesn't hold it needs looking at.

Hi, thanks for this. Will check this week before returning, sorry for the delay in responding (been away for a few days).
