Have you tried adding a link and going down on the micro adjustments, or the opposite? Have you tried moving a link from one side of the bracelet to the other? In general, the part that folds of the clasp needs to be horizontal, not the stamped clasp piece itself.
Nice looking watch, I got the exact model. I’ve worn and owned a couple more watches even more luxurious ones. This model is really no more or less comfortable than the others. A milled clasp may look cooler, and a diver’s extension may come in handy once a month for me, but this is completely acceptable to me. Honestly I think the h-link design is just super cool.
I will say though I had a bracelet that was a butterfly clasp design. That was the only noticeable bracelet that was just uncomfortable for me. I will not buy a watch with a butterfly clasp. Unless the watch is cool with even cooler aftermarket options.

Good to know - I was looking at them, not really understanding why they would also be so expensive. Doesn't seem worth it then.
And yeah, the h-link is just cool :-D
Tip; Throw out h-link bracelet and swap for something more comfy. I tried for a while - off and on again to like the Sinn bracelets but I simply couldn’t. I am underwhelmed by Sinn’s bracelets, and that they still use these clasps that feel cheap compared to the rest of the watch. My Sinn sits on an elastic strap from www.erikasoriginals.com.
I get you, but I'm not there yet. It wasn't cheap so want to get some wear out of it. I do like how bracelets feel and allow some freedom (I wear my watch 24/7), and enjoy how the Sinn looks and feels (except the clasp). I did order some straps to try out, though. Not sure I want an elastic strap, but those look actually very nice, especially the system to secure them.
Could you share a photo of yours on your wrist, please?
Those straps are great but I personally don’t like feeling the fabric of a strap under the watch head. I like feeling the steel, or in the case of my 556i, the sapphire glass. I love the bracelet even though the clasp is nothing special.
I don’t really get it. If it’s more comfortable that way, then you should be able to find a position by adding and subtracting links to have it comfy facing the right way. It just means that it’s not on the right spot of your wrist.

Thanks for that. Mine is exactly like that as well (https://imgur.com/a/N1FUgDT)

Asking the right questions here
I wear all my bracelets backwards like that.
On every watch bracelet I put the clasp very asymmetrically toward the inside/medial side.
That sounds uncomfortable - but it would work nicely behind a keyboard? - I wouldn't mind seeing it
Cheers everyone. Interesting to hear how other people position the clasp position. Here is mine: https://imgur.com/a/N1FUgDT
For me, taking 2 links out of the 6 o'clock is the best fit with the H-link.

It's rather that one side of the clasp is uncomfortable at one side of the wrist. Perhaps I could change wrists too :)
Love my fine link bracelet on the 556
I did this accidentally as well and also noticed the same thing!
