Screw is loose
I've never had this happen to me. I just got back from my sons baseball game and took my watch off. It felt weird and I noticed one of the screws from the link was almost off. Is this normal, it's never happened to me before.

If you don't have any loctite on hand, clear nail polish will work in a pinch.

Buy a good screwdriver and check them once in a while!
Also, use blue loctite. Just like any screws pretty much anywhere, they could possibly back out. |

Has not happened to me yet in the 23 years I've been wearing Rolex. I long ago made it a daily ritual to check them all however.

Happens ,specially with the new solid link bracelets ,since those are more rigid than the older hollow types.Loctite &a watchmaker will fix it.
