what did you do with the hopelessly ruined jubilee bracelet? If you haven't donated it to some charity that assists indigent Rolex owners perhaps I could take it off your hands, so to speak.

Troller: didn't this (or some other) fat ass break your bracelet last year? And yet after dropping $1700 (plus tax) you're still clasping it on to the wrist of gorillas who invariably trigger your raging obsessive need to see flaws where they don't exist?

This is his third attempt since yesterday trying to create a new thread. They’ve been getting merged into the large one from last year.

He never provided the requested receipts proving his new bracelet replacement last year. I imagine it’s a troll if he didn’t learn his lesson the first go around.

No way the bracelet stretched. Now, if it's really looser, then something may be "broken" as in a bent pin. Your friend's hand would have purple it was so tight that he bent a pin trying it on. I say relax and enjoy your watch, nothing happened to it.

Either a troll, or someone best not left with unsupervised use of the internet.

I suggest your friend should de-friend you.

I think the watch is okay, but the steering wheel horn looks too big. Did you by any chance let your friend drive your car?

I know it cant happen unless a lot of force but just wanted some reassurance please see attached link, the first 3 pics are before and everything else is after i let him wear it for a bit. I probably wont replace the band again unless you guys think its necessary once again Im not trying to troll but just want your guys (the experts) advice. Ive had the watch almost for a year now and am pretty rough with it have accumulated scratches dings etc, but wanted advice in this regard thank you!

Do NOT fall for this NON-SENSE thread!!!! This went on last year for a month of pic requests, questions, etc etc. OP just went on and on for a month. Now he’s popped up again with the “stretched 905L bracelet” questions and pics all over again. Don’t feed a stray cat…..

Something is wrong with this guy. He's posted this same thread three times in the past two days. Ban maybe?

Same here.. I thought someone bumped the thread for a second.

To the OP, looks fine.
