Opinion on Bracelet Stretch
Thinking about picking up this F serial. Bracelet looks to have minor stretch, to me. What do you folks think? Thanks.

Looks fine.... but just to make you more worried... what if the bracelet was hanging, then they took the picture and rotated it 90 degrees counter clock wise.

Looks great! My dad's 16713 has medium stretch in the Oyster locking bracelet and it's fine, it has a lot more stretch in the band than the one in this picture!

You are fine. Looks just like my bracelet stretch. I thought bad at first, now it just is what it is.

It ought to be a tad more comfortable with a little wiggle in it's joints. Not really a problem IMHO.
