For how long have you had your Sub?

RichM · 2 December 2015, 07:23 AM

I've never noticed it on mine. How old is it?

sco · 2 December 2015, 07:24 AM

Mine is exactly the same way! It is from the inside of the clasp rubbing the inside of the bracelet. Personally, I wouldn't polish or re brush this area, as it will likely continue to happen. Enjoy your sub!

1 year..

Normal wear.

Tools · 2 December 2015, 07:26 AM

That is normal wear..

It is easily repaired, but if you refinish too often you will remove a lot of material from your bracelet.

Here is a do-it-yourself.

jrs146 · 2 December 2015, 07:27 AM

All normal! Just shows you love your watch and it's not a safe queen!

I have a 16610 from 2002 and it doesn't show this wear. Interesting. Thanks for sharing!

Are those reddish looking or is it something on photo making it look that way?

Rolex57 · 2 December 2015, 10:43 AM

Have the same on my watches. From constant wear.

I wouldn't polish it. Leave it.

ap1 · 2 December 2015, 11:10 AM

Normal. Hurts more on PM

SpaceWanderer · 2 December 2015, 11:27 AM

You haven't been wearing it, have you? Oh the humanity!

tjjma · 2 December 2015, 11:38 AM

Completely normal and mine started showing within the first week of wearing.

treblarefils · 2 December 2015, 12:05 PM

Yup normal as the others have said its just the way it is with the design.

jkfsu · 2 December 2015, 01:27 PM

Any way of avoiding this? I usually put a peice of tape on the last link....

Rocket_Man · 2 December 2015, 01:58 PM

Do you lay the watch 'flat' when you are not wearing it? Probably the bracelet links and clasp rubbing against each other while you lay it down and pick up up. If you use a winder the cushion will prevent this. If you don't use a winder you could still put a winder pillow in there. I have a 30 year old DJ that has a lot more wear there than this.
