Rolex watch bracelets.
I know if you hold your watch with the crown towards the ceiling or floor, the amount of sag there is (buckle at 3 o'clock, six o'clock or anywhere in between) is how you rate them. What terms do you use to describe buckle at 4, or 5 o'clock? Thank you.

I think you mean this.Holding the watch with the closed bracelet sideways you can determine the amount of wear.Doesn't work so well with jubilee bracelets as these have lots of movement brand new.This is my brand new Blnr bought today so provides a point of reference.If the bracelet isn't horizontal,the photo has been rotated whilst uploading,haven't sussed that problem out yetEdit,yes photo has got rotated
Kind Regards Nigel |

That depends.... the above pic is an Oyster bracelet, a President bracelet is more inclined to droop after years then an Oyster one, but fear not... We all have Michael Young

Thanks, Yes that's what I meant. I remember people describing them using a percentage. Maybe something like 4 o'clock meant the bracelet was 80%.
