I shortened my Grand Seiko bracelet: Regular links vs half links, and how unclean a bracelet can still be after 75 minutes of ultrasonic cleaning

  • the watch is the SBGX263

  • a grand seiko bracelet full link is 10 mm wide
  • a half link is 6.5 mm wide (meaning 2 half links is 13 mm)
  • a ultrasonic cleaning, even at 75 minutes, won’t remove the black dirt stuck in the pins
