In my view, the ultrasound might loosen these fixations, mostly depending on agitation time and frequency.
Therefore, I would not risk a potential disassembly of one or more bracelet elements, which might happen during wearing the watch.

Understandable concern. Though I've never had an issue with it.
But, now that I have my jewelry steam cleaner, I hardly ever pull out the ultrasonic. I think the steam cleaner works much better and is easier to do on a more regular basis.
