Oyster Bracelet
This is the bracelet on my 2003 Sea-Dweller. Do you think it's showing any signs of stretch yet?

Hardly any in my opinion - especially for 11 years plus. Looks great!

Minimal. Not enough to be concerned about, still looks good.

sólo un poco = just a little bit... Nothing to be concerned about, IMHO.

Put it this way: if I were writing the sales ad, I would state "minimal stretch," and show a photo with the watch head perfectly upright (not at an angle). Easier to shoot the pic and adjust with editing tools, like this:

A little stretch, but what you'd expect for a well worn 2003 model. Keep wearing the hell out of that great watch!

Sure, there's some stretch but nothing abnormal.

If the bracelet has hollow links I would say there is no stretch at all.

I've been wearing this GMT-II almost daily since 2003. The bracelet shows almost no stretch.
