Re: Advice on Bracelet Stretch
In Response To: Advice on Bracelet Stretch ()

The amount of stretch shouldn't be that profound that a rebuild or purchase of a new bracelet will be needed. Any stretch is primarily due to pressures created by the natural flex and movement of your wrist and hand. Significant stretching probably means you were waring the bracelet too tight to begin with.

: I have the Seamaster Speedy style bracelet and
: on the other forum someone experienced
: stretch after 9 months of use. My question
: is can I rebuild my bracelet when it gets to
: that point or do I have to result in getting
: a new bracelet. Also can someone tell me the
: part number for Frei and Borel to remove
: pins to size my bracelet. Thanks for any
: help you can provide.
