How to deal with a squeaky bracelet?
There's this squeaky sound coming from my bracelet. I can't tell from which hinge's the culprit. Any areas you recommend lubing? I have a silicone lubricant.

It will go away after a couple weeks of wear if it’s brand new. Strangely I miss that new bracelet squeak lol

Do not lube. Lube attracts dirt and dirt is an abrasive that accelerates wear.

It will go away on its own after a few weeks of wearing,just keep them clean with regular washing in soap and water, rinse well after pat dry thats all is needed.

There's nothing more to do than wearing it. Squeak will soon be gone forever...

Just wear it and wait. Once it's gone you'll never hear it again. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Wear it while showing. Plus it cleans the watch. Leave it on your wrist. Just don’t leave soap residue on it. |

Ah thanks for the info. Yes it's a brand new piece. It honestly bothered me at first but now that I know it's temporary I'll try to embrace it

Probably stop after a good soapy wash like you would do anyway.

I find that mine go away within a few days. Maybe a week at most. I just shower with it on, give it a good wash and it seems to go away.
