I got this from an AD.

My DSSD and WG sub bracelet didn't squeak...what's up ?

It squeaks when I flex the bracelet back and forth quickly.

Or I can slightly hear it squeak when I rotate my wrist quickly sometimes.

Maybe when you do that your bracelet is hurting and screams a little..

It will go away with some use and a few showers..

handsfull · 5 October 2011, 01:17 PM

tight machining tolerances on your bracelet....that's a good thing!

perpetualman88 · 5 October 2011, 01:19 PM

DO NOT STRESS. This is perfectly normal for a brand new watch means the band is sqweeky tight and mint congrats on the watch

Deepsea Florida · 5 October 2011, 01:20 PM

Ok, put my new watch under running water....less squeak after I pulled it out of the water.

But still squeaks more than my DSSD.

Also the bracelet while looking similar to the DSSD.....the Sub C LV bracelet doesn't look as thick. Is this right ?

Thanks for the quick answers...my fellow nuts ! :)

warm water and mild soap will eliminate the squeaking

Runnin' Rebel · 5 October 2011, 02:51 PM

My new Milgauss squeaks a little.

fayed · 5 October 2011, 09:15 PM

Mine squeaks as well after 6 months of ownership. Even after joining me in the shower most mornings.
Doesn't bother me much though.

masterserg · 5 October 2011, 09:31 PM

Enjoy it while it lasts!

Puffy · 5 October 2011, 10:02 PM

best sound in the world

Rani Drama · 5 October 2011, 10:51 PM

My SUB C did the same when i got it. I wish i washed it with soapy water instantly. Somehow the links that were squeaking worn out prematurely had RSC replace 3 links under warranty.

Yep! In fact, when I ordered the watch I made sure to check the "Squeaky Bracelet" option.

It's fine but is does irritate.

I used lubricant for guns. It's not oil, it's some other stuff that is not sticky or oily...

I leaves a white powder which can be wiped of easy.

powedered Teflon in a solvent carrier... not a bad idea.
graphite powder for locks would probably work as well. My GMT IIc bracelet squeaks after a year of use.

Cabaiguan · 6 October 2011, 02:33 AM

Totally normal on the new bracelets.

GMT Mafia · 6 October 2011, 03:42 AM

My GMT II C squeaks when I take it off my wrist, but it does not bother me. It is better than the hollow rattle of my DJ. Wear it in good health.

thanks Steve. So just an Oyster Bracelet then..
That, I am familiar with. ..

RyanJames · 6 October 2011, 08:13 AM

The 214270 I bought last month was squeaking like a Mofo.

Get in the bath soap it up and rinse a few times, I can pretty much guarantee it will be silent soon after.

I miss my new squeak sound
