Did I hurt my glidelock WD40 ?

[Deepsea Florida]

I have a Hulk since 2011, and even though I also have a Smurf, and a 116600LN, I seem to always gravitate and wear my Hulk 90%+ of the time.

Anyway I had gained a little weight and working out with weights like when I was young, so I added a link back to the glidelock. I know the watch needs a service because the watch makes a noise like something loose when I rotate my wrist very quickly side to side, but since this is an unnatural movement I don’t do it.

Anyway.......glidelock has been getting stuck with one notch showing. It got stuck tonight and I was able to disengage it once, didn’t want to use too much force to unstick it. And then it got stuck again ! I decided to go into my garage and grab my WD40 and put a squirt with a WD straw like end. It now slides smoother, and disengages much easier, and locks into place easier.

Did I hurt anything ?

No, you didn't hurt anything.

WD-40 is kerosene and mineral oil, both common cleaning and lubrication products.

Makes it smell better, too.

It won't hurt the bracelet ,but might give you an oil rash on your wrist.

The only potential damage will be the WD40's tendency to gunk up with dirt.

Put your bracelet on an ultrasonic cleaner and the problem will be solve.
