The style of the bracelet has more to do with it - which bracelets in particular are you wanting to compare?

With its hollow construction, the bracelet on the 16800 will be most prone to stretch, although it won't be as bad as a Jubilee bracelet from the same period, for example. Bracelets on the Sub C and Pelagos are both solid link, so stretch should be a minimal issue

thanks for the reply... so being s/s and TI isnt that much of an issue when i comes to stretch?
more of the built of the center link if hollow or solid? |

I would say this is correct.

The bracelet you do not properly maintain (clean/ultrasonic...etc) will be more prone to stretch.
