Anyone who wears a watch daily knows the challenge: your wrist rarely stays the same size throughout the day.
In the morning, after a night’s rest, your wrist is at its smallest. But as the day goes on — with changes in temperature, activity, and hydration — it naturally changes.
That perfect fit you had at 8am can suddenly feel tight and uncomfortable by mid-afternoon.
While other solutions exist, we believed there was a more elegant way to address this challenge.
That’s why we spent the past two years testing, refining, and improving prototypes until we arrived at a system that feels effortless — a mechanism that ensures your bracelet fits perfectly, every time and at any moment of the day: GlideLink.
Traditional metal bracelets leave you with only two options: add or remove a link, or settle for a fit that is either too loose or too tight. For something you wear every day, that compromise should never exist. A bracelet should adapt to you — not the other way around.
Solving this challenge elegantly wasn’t simple. Over two years, we developed and tested multiple prototypes, experimenting with tolerances, mechanisms, and materials until we found the right balance of functionality and refinement. Some designs were too bulky, others too fiddly, and a few just didn’t hold up to daily use.
Our goal was to create an on-the-fly micro adjustment system that is discreet, robust, and effortless to use — while maintaining the sleek lines and classic design philosophy Emerton Scott is known for.
The result is GlideLink® — a precision-engineered mechanism that offers up to 5mm of seamless on-the-fly micro adjustment to our metal bracelets. With a simple press and glide, the clasp effortlessly expands or contracts to match the natural needs of your wrist. No tools, no fuss — just the perfect fit, any time of day.
You can set your bracelet in the morning when your wrist is at its smallest, and fine-tune it later for comfort as the day goes on. The mechanism locks securely in place, preventing accidental movement, while the engineered design ensures smooth and consistent operation for years of daily wear.
A watch should feel like an extension of you — never a distraction. GlideLink removes compromise, giving you both comfort and security without adding bulk or complexity. It’s a detail that may go unnoticed by others, but once experienced, it becomes impossible to live without.
The GlideLink On-the-Fly Micro Adjust is more than just a clasp. It is a thoughtful solution to a problem every watch wearer faces, executed with the same care and precision that defines all Emerton Scott products. By making small adjustments effortless, it allows you to enjoy your watch exactly as it was intended — with comfort, balance, and elegance that lasts all day.
We believe it’s these little details that truly define an exceptional experience for our customers.
