BS-10 - GOOD ART HLYWD Model 10 Bracelet
-
@Oaktavia Model 10 B is the one for me. Copped. Might as well go big!

I am looking for 4A sizing. I am with 19cm wrist but looking at the snug fit.
Should I aim for 17.5cm size in that case? May be I read somewhere in here that says about 2cm reduction if required snug fit??

@oblivion.sila Everyone has different preferences. The recommended fit from GAH is pretty loose in my experience.
For example my wrist is just a bit over 16cm where I normally wear a watch, but 17cm "down low and snug" as the recommended measuring on their sizing charts. So I have always gone with 17cm. This results in a loose bracelet with a lot of slack. I have a few photos for you to see the recommended GAH fit.
So you could definitely size down one size and be fine, but after that it could get a bit tricky.

I have a 2A that is on the medium snug side. My wrist is 7.25" (18.4cm) and my bracelet is 8" (20.3cm), so it is ~1.9cm larger than my wrist. It is loose enough to slide up and down my wrist but a bit more snug than the recommended.
Does anyone know the recommended wrist measurement to bracelet length ratio that GAH recommends? I read online that a bracelet 1.3 cm - 2.5cm larger than a wrist is recommenced via Google search for a curb chain bracelet.

I don't think there's a standard rule of length since the thickness of the links changes how much length is needed to fit the same. It may just be length, but it's also a circumference, so it reduces the length on your wrist by half the link thickness.
Also pretty sure I saw a post from jw where he talked about this

For the Model 10 B I was between sizes and went down a size. It worked great, still big enough to easily fit one fingers between the wrist and bracelet. I think at least with the model 10 you an size down if you're between sizes.

Thanks everyone for chipping in.
I always feel entitled with IH customer service as given and the team's dedication for serve. The community around it is another level. Will give a deep thought which way to go forward. Love you all

Just wanted to drop a quick one to say a massive thank you to the Iron Heart Gosport legends for letting me crash the party during a busy hour today.
It was killer catching up with the whole crew: Vik, James, Freeman, Josh, and Ben. Sorry if I missed anyone in the mix!
Special shout-out to @Bailey —man, thank you for sharing a piece of your own pop lock to help get mine sorted. I know I was acting like a total kid in a candy store, but honestly, every time I visit the workshop it just feels like a "nudge of home."Finally walked out with the Model 10 4A. Went for the 24-link snug fit for office wear and it is a pure masterpiece. The engineering is insane.
@Kasi — Mission accomplished! Thanks for all the tips and help tracking this one down.
Time to get some miles on this silver!

@RobeOfTheMagi I have 17mm wrist with 15 link and it is very loose, 14 links should be a comfortable/loose fit. GAH sizing is for a very loose fit. For example, if you look at the IH sizing guide, they recommended 14 link with 17mm wrist.

@paris75009 thank you so much! That’s exactly the kind of information I need!
