bracelet quality
Jan 05, 2006,01:01 AM
I bought my UN chronometer 1846 about 10 months ago.It happened twice to me so far whereby the links of the bracelet just came off. Luckily on both occasion, I didnt lose the links and the watch. I managed to get it fixed for free with the dealer during the 1st occurrence. It happened again on different links yesterday and now it gives me a freak that I could lose the watch without even realising it.
The links that got loose are closer to the watch which I think is shrink fit. I got no problem with links closer to the folding clasp as these links are screwed down.
Anybody has suggestion on what should I do. I think I would like to change to leather strap. But after much thinking, the bracelet should last and reliable.

Correct. At first, I thought the screwed links came loose ...

... which would have been a question of securing the screws. But if one of the other links fell off, then definitely the bracelet has a serious defect, which must have looked after by the manufacturer. Please keep us updated. Regards, Marcus
