Bracelet break in

[Cossak]

Hi all, just wondering if there’s such a thing as break in for bracelets? Through some adjustments and daily wear it feels like it took around 9 years to get the feel, fit and comfort just right for my SEL 16610 sub. Maybe it’s also called bracelet stretch too instead of wear in and I suspect it’ll continue as it gets worn.

Yes, they are really stiff brand new. Mine took a few months to become a little looser, and now it fits much better.

I don't have any issues with my watches as long as they're sized correctly.

Bracelet stretch happens from wear overtime (dead skin, dirt, skin cheese and metal on metal) and is typically is undesirable
