Like a ceramic bearing system. You still must keep the bracelet clean.

These sleeves are great!! They significantly extend the life of the PM bracelets without need for an expensive rebuild or replacement!!! Here pins and sleeves are all that need to be replaced!!!

Some of those saying your watch does not have them, have you looked into whether the sleeve is stuck inside the link hole when you take out the screw?

My deepest apologies, it does have the sleeve/inserts. The inserts are dark gray.

If that is a link that you removed for sizing, it should not still be in that link. It needs to be in the link that is still in the bracelet.

Yes, this is the way the AD sized the bracelet. Sorry to take the thread so off topic.
