Wonder if there's any regulations that say bracelet must give way before being able to rip your hand off your forearm, in an event that watch gets snagged on something hard.
Some working environments with moving machinery don't like you wearing nato straps for that reason (or any jewellery or watch at all in some cases).

I'd guess that the springbar is the weakest link in S/S bracelets, and that is likely to give way before you lose a limb.
