What is best a custom Rolex or a Rolex that is stuck in custom?

New DS owner:
"I've had my DS for a couple weeks now, but can't help noticing that the metal on the ratchet teeth are showing some wear. They seem to have a sheen where I am linking it. How can I avoid this from happening? Also, is it safe to wear this watch in the pool? I'm afraid I might damage it or water could enter through the helium valve."

I definately wouldn't play pool while wearing this Rolex.

Good info Jocke, can you tell me the range of adjustment? Is it about the same or more than the Easylink?

Not certain I understand how this differs from the oyster and jubilee bracelets and why it represents an improvement over those?
