They offered a sonic clean, I refused as it will also remove all the lubrication from the links.
Perhaps I am naive but:

This "rust" can be rubbed off?

"Chemicals" leaking out"

You refused a sonic cleaning of the bracelet because it would remove the "lubrication"? What "lubrication"?

Is this staining on the watch head or just the locations where the pins are? I would have had the cleaning done but it is your watch.

Beginning to sound like tea staining not rust
