New watch? You will miss it once its gone...
If its a SD43 mine lasted way longer than any other watches did. Have had what I refer to as bracelet squeak on more than half of my watches.

Had a squeaking noise in my car a while back that I couldn't find and it turned out to be my watch.

Congrats on your BLNR, got mine a few days ago as well, and had the squeaks as well, what bugs me isnt the squeaks so much, but the friction that made the bracelet feels cheap, googled and washed mine with soap. And the squeaks gone. Dont miss it one bit.

Squeeking noise on lug screws, normal?
I applied a drop of baby oil and it worked a treat. Smells nice too.....
I should mention that I gave it a good rinse with water too |

I read somewhere that oil would trap debris. I swim with my watches. They usually squeak for a day or two after.
