Is this stretch or normal for this type of bracelet?

Looks fairly good to me for the age.

You can’t really see from the pic but this was my Explorer bracelet that’s a few years newer before I had it restored. Stretch/sag was significantly worse.

Who restored your bracelet?

I'd say the OP photo shows very little stretch if any.

These guys have a good reputation. I haven't gotten around to it, but I have a jubilee bracelet I intend to send to them for some TLC:

Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend them.

Can you please share the reason?

All I would want to say publicly was that I became unhappy with the work product and customer service.

Having Rolex replace the bracelet is insanely expensive considering the replacement will be just as prone to wearing out like this one too, kind of baffling how these are this bad given the cost.

I’m not sure they’re any more or less expensive than equivalent Omega bracelets are they?

That bracelet does not look like it needs restoration!
