I agree completely !
Although a nice piece of engineering, its got some pretty serious Achilles Heals...
But the assessment sounds correct. The lug or "pin holder" probably was over-stressed when it was welded to the clasp housing and "presto-junko", thus losing integrity. "Spot welds" give me a freakin break !
This shuld be a "recall" of the assy by ROLEX and a refit for a newer fix'd design IMO. I believe the assy shuld be completely "machined"; meaning pin and clasp housing all one unit; call ROLEX and they'll tellya, "yeah, Randy's right, it should be machined as a single assy" !
Can you imagine, the clasp housing costing half as much as the entire bracelet, if not more ! SHEEZE
