Reason for play in bracelet end link?

    Hello guys, I was wondering if anybody else has noticed that the end link on their watch slides slightly to the sides about half a millimeter. Is this to keep the watch from getting scratched/to ensure a better fit or is the bracelet on my watch the wrong one/too small? Pics of my watch for reference.

    did you buy the watch new? (iow: did you receive it this way from the AD?) ...

    if yes, I'd def not call that fine ... that gap is rather Invicta territory than what I'd expect from a $3k Omega (QA wise)


    if you bought used, there might be a chance somebody polished and took some material off the lugs/endlink...

    This is normal. I've seen it 1000 times working for Omega as a watchmaker. My suggestion is to not try and find something wrong with the watch. It looks like it's in great condition.
