What would you recommend?
This is a known issue and if you go back to the AD, they will remedy it.
I noticed the Seamaster bracelets work best after having been taken into the sea a couple of times (no joke). Wears al the parts in perfectly, gets rids of the "stickyness" and makes the micro adjust slide more easily.

Dawn dish detergent and warm-to-hot water. Wiggle it around some. 😀
That's only if it's gunked up though, and a new watch should not be. But worth a try before you send it in.
Shouldn’t be gunked (and doesn’t feel gunked). It’s been worn fairly delicately for less than a month. But I’ll give it a try. They feel completely frozen.
This isn’t a problem with gunk in the mechanism, it’s a problem with one of the springs and is a known defect in these bracelets. You can try all these proposed solutions (soaking in hot water or the ocean (!), etc) and it likely won’t do anything. It won’t hurt to try, but you need to resign yourself to sending it in for a warranty repair.
Welp. The other push button is now stuck and the clasp is impossible to open. On the plus side it’s not on me. On the negative side I bought from an AD but not a local AD. This just really stinks with a new watch and my first experience with Omega. Does anyone have a remedy for this??
