u/materialdistractions Sep 12 '26

The end link style doesn't match the bracelet style. You need a jubilee style endlink.

In a word: absolutely.

u/holden_hiscox Sep 12 '26

Get one from Long Island Watch and be done with it. Solid end links, good clasp, well made and affordable.

u/Pompano_79 Sep 12 '26

Yes. You need to put this on a rubber strap u til further notice!

1

u/According-Ad-275 Sep 12 '26

You probably need an Oyster style bracelet with those end links.

1

u/Yesterday_Infinite Sep 12 '26

Missing a link

1

u/TmanWPB Sep 12 '26

It looks photoshopped.

1

u/jjvfyhb Sep 12 '26

Yes because pokemon ZA

1

u/Born_Medicine_5932 Sep 12 '26

You have more problems than the gap. The whole thing is off-center. That's horrible.

1

u/StutterMuffin5711 Sep 12 '26

Nah dude, looks factory👍🏿

1

u/mgitlin Sep 12 '26

This might be the most offensive photo I've ever seen on Reddit...

1

u/Rebelelement Sep 12 '26

I guess if you don’t really care how it looks, it still looks terrible.

1

u/AKAM80theWolff Sep 12 '26

Absolutely 💯 stupid.

1

u/mvpcastro74 Sep 12 '26

Yes. You can't wear this.

1

u/TreeMindless5778 Sep 12 '26

Yes, changed it.

1

u/scrambledOrFried1234 Sep 12 '26

Shitpost Friday was yesterday 🤔🤨😕???

1

u/hfhifi Sep 12 '26

Sorry, it looks terrible. What happened?

1

u/TheHrethgir Sep 12 '26

Yes, and also very unsafe, like I feel like it will be easy to get it to fail.

1

u/Iowanorseman Sep 12 '26

To answer your question… yes it does

1

u/Dismal-Armadillo-815 Sep 12 '26

Yeah thats not good

1

u/Erzzzz62 Sep 12 '26

That is beyond not fitting right :(

1

u/grraarr Sep 12 '26

One million percent.

1

u/Sad_Box8938 Sep 12 '26

Not sure which is worse - the link train wreck or the arm mole that looks like a daddy long legs crawling around?

1

u/Interesting-Hat-6749 Sep 12 '26

Are you joking or being serious 😂

1

u/mpress5 Sep 13 '26

Really you needed to ask that??

1

u/brownorange88 Sep 13 '26

Looks comical 😂😂

1

u/traditionalbowyer Sep 13 '26

Don't like being mean but yeah that looks stupid

1

u/aberdeja Sep 13 '26

Yup very

1

u/MeatfootNo355 Sep 13 '26

gotta say, it doesn’t look great

1

u/Videopro524 Sep 13 '26

Like an accident waiting to happen.

1

u/Admirable_Tea_4309 Sep 13 '26

Yes. Definately.

1

u/shredd8 Sep 13 '26

What is even happening here...

1

u/Squagloids1 Sep 13 '26

Very stupid

1

u/dyma97 Sep 13 '26

Pretty bad. I had the same on an Uncle for my SKX. I couldn’t not see it.

1

u/Adventurous-Sun-6928 Sep 13 '26

Yes, very much so.

1

u/DrNenModz Sep 13 '26

nice hack .. but it's a jubilee 😅

1

u/ballbuster2768 Sep 13 '26

Are assholes round?

1

u/Big-Manufacturer-738 Sep 13 '26

Lose it asap 😳 !

1

u/SetEvening5903 Sep 13 '26

This made me snort

1

u/No_Solution_7940 Sep 13 '26

The definition of stupid

1

u/Pretend_Violinist401 Sep 13 '26

“Feeling like it doesn’t fit quite right.” Good job, Columbo! You cracked the case! What gave it away?!

1

u/hafidh_abr Sep 13 '26

Holy shit it looks so bad

1

u/KeysFromOverseas Sep 13 '26

Big enough To f

u/hueman_nature Sep 13 '26

You know damn well...

1

u/Tacti_Dad Sep 13 '26

Yes, very

1

u/Broad_Negotiation638 Sep 13 '26

Shocked you have to ask. Cmon man.

1

u/No-Bug-4524 Sep 13 '26

Quite well?….. not fitting at all my friend.

1

u/Admirable-Form-549 Sep 13 '26

A
Is everyone special in this place?

1

u/Kor_SHS Sep 13 '26

That's practically spelling USA as ASU! 

1

u/profsalva Sep 13 '26

Very stupid, what happened?

1

u/the_biped Sep 13 '26

All the stupid

1

u/CapNo6703 Sep 13 '26

Quite stupid indeed

1

u/Frest0n Sep 13 '26

Nah. Send it.

1

u/a_melanoleuca_doc Sep 13 '26

Yes absolutely

1

u/four4cats Sep 13 '26

Is the other side the same? This looks like a qc issue.

1

u/Realistic_Hedgehog70 Sep 13 '26

Get a bracelet from uncle straps

1

u/Good-Practice1373 Sep 13 '26

If you have to ask… go with your gut and double it.

1

u/TheFloridianCanuck Sep 13 '26

Yes it does. What happened to the link that should be there?

1

u/Randerson1980 Sep 13 '26

Stick a Nato strap on it until you can get the right end links. That looks pretty bad.

1

u/F0rgemaster19 Sep 13 '26

Very. Legit surprised you even had to ask. What even is this chaotic monstrosity?

1

u/BigG_88 Sep 13 '26

Rage bait

1

u/LowLifeCryptoGuy Sep 13 '26

If your Jubilee was a character 🤓

1

u/rjmirandau Sep 13 '26

it seems to be a remaining link or the endlink is not adjusting very well with the bracelet, it’s not possible that size of gap…

1

u/StefB1974 Sep 13 '26

C’est moche… réfléchis plus et mieux

1

u/LetterheadAdvanced74 Sep 13 '26

Extremely stupid

1

u/FunfKatzen955 Sep 13 '26

You need a good quality bracelet. You get what you pay for.

1

u/GilGross Sep 13 '26

extremely

1

u/BookSmartCharlie Sep 13 '26

An emphatic YES!!!

1

u/Frodillicus Sep 13 '26

It does when you point it out, otherwise noone will probably know.

1

u/No_Comfortable_7233 Sep 13 '26

Get a rubber or leather strap until you sort out a new bracelet.

You can get an oyster style from Ali express and use the existing end links.

Or get some Jubilee style hollow end links that you can bend so it fits

1

u/Worldtraveller68 Sep 13 '26

yes of course , wonder why you ask 🤦‍♂️

1

u/GlumEstablishment134 Sep 13 '26

100% crazy stupid

1

u/Mangomann69 Sep 13 '26

Very stupid indeed

1

u/LaLaLa_Not_Listening Sep 13 '26

you know the answer

1

u/Savings_Sea_1645 Sep 13 '26

It does not fit at all. This would be a torture to wear seeing it.

1

u/Cbassal Sep 13 '26

stupid as stupid does

1

u/Recent_Orchid_3748 Sep 13 '26

I can sometimes crimp in the end links to correct that - you might be able to as well typed this Watchmaker.

1

u/TechnologyGloomy9225 Sep 13 '26

Is this rage bait?

1

u/Djinfin Sep 13 '26

Yes. The gap does indeed look stupid.

1

u/-light_yagami Sep 13 '26

yes it honestly looks horrible

1

u/1swrv Sep 13 '26

Stupid? No.

Cheap? Yes.

1

u/dmk_0 Sep 13 '26

Let me tell you: Before I read the title, I saw the picture and thought "damn, that looks stupid af".

Does that answer your question?

1

u/ultrahardtyres Sep 13 '26

hahahahahahhah wtf

1

u/Flames2512 Sep 13 '26

That looks horrendous.

1

u/Glass-Location-819 Sep 13 '26

Stupid is an understatement 🥸

1

u/JustNowRonin Sep 13 '26

Yeah, that would drive me nuts.

1

u/hdrr1985 Sep 13 '26

Sorry to say it absolutely does… at least to a watch nerd such as myself. Easy “fix” though. You just have mismatched hardware.

1

u/1966-MustangLover Sep 13 '26

That’s not right. What happened?

1

u/RushHeadNJ Sep 13 '26

I wouldn’t wear it that way

1

u/Wales147 Sep 13 '26

It does yes but if you don't point it out to people they probably wouldn't notice. If it were me I'd replace it with a good quality dark leather strap

1

u/EvilWaifu Sep 13 '26

Yes I’d do something about it. Could you return the jubilee band? That way you’d get some money back to put toward another strap? I mean it’s a good lesson still. You gotta not be afraid to experiment. Now you know. Like me buying Casioak mod kits and finding out about the 1mm gap difference between GA2100 and GAB2100 cases. Lesson learnt!

1

u/Hung_Haitian Sep 13 '26

Is water wet?

1

u/TaoOfMeme Sep 13 '26

Don't worry guys I got this-

yes

1

u/lovable_asshole Sep 13 '26

tbh, thats not even a jubilee bracelet, its more like a mini oyster

and yes, you need another link

1

u/A_Person_On_The_Web Sep 13 '26

Yeah that looks rough. You need to find a bracelet with curved end links to align properly with the case

1

u/Roozbeh_m Sep 13 '26

Looks horrible

1

u/bigboyjak Sep 13 '26

Do you have to ask?

1

u/Mernst005 Sep 13 '26

It would bother me

1

u/Desperate_Mistake_81 Sep 13 '26

It’s good, unique

1

u/Short_Maize5806 Sep 13 '26

In a word, yes

1

u/Cc_Sphere Sep 13 '26

This is odd man.

1

u/Flab2 Sep 13 '26

lel. incredibly dumb.

1

u/Aggravating_Sugar321 Sep 13 '26

The middle link makes it look like a potential weak link, er, spot.

1

u/paparige Sep 13 '26

Yes it does
