My bracelet feels very flimsy, not like the Starbucks VSF. Anyone else experienced this? Should I put the bracelet in baby oil?

Try oil.. if that doesn't work it must be a different bracelet than what they used before. Oil should transform it...

What type of oil? I only have olive oil at home lol, would that work?

I had some success with olive oil but it washes off in a few days ( I wear watch in the shower). But it will give you an idea of how an oiling can transform a bracelet from feeling really cheap to feeling more gen. I’m still researching the best oil to use that will go the distance- a gen bracelet feels gen even once it’s been degreased.. I’d like to find a lubricant that lasts.

Do you actually pour oil (baby oil, olive oil) onto the bracelet, directly? Is that how you guys proceed? I’ve received my 12LN a few days ago and the bracelet squeaks a bit
