Gorgeous watch, great functionality, bracelet pins and mounts bend 7x per year

This is my favorite watch ever from a looks, comfort and functionality perspective. Unfortunately there seems to be a design flaw, or an issue with my watch in particular, regarding the bracelet pins. I've had this watch for just over 1 year and have had to have the pins on the top of the watch replaced 3x and the bottom replaced 4 times. I wear watches every day and have done so for 30 years. Timex to Tissot and while I like this watch better than any other, I've never had this kind of fragility.
