Bracelet Help!!!
I need some help/advice on a Rolex Model: 16013, Caliber 3035 with Jubilee bracelet. This watch is in beautiful condition and just serviced but unfortunately the bracelet is worn and stretched beyond repair. I just telephoned Rolex service in New York and found out that they no longer repair bracelets in this state but they will trade the bracelet in and provide a new one for $3450.
That is a lot of money for a watch that would struggle to appraise at the price of the trade-in.
One suggestion I have been told is to purchase a NOS or used Rolex bracelet. I see those run about $1500 but who can you trust? I guess then you could dismantle the bracelet if you wanted to and sell the gold. Any other suggestions?

I have done leather straps before...some remade and some custom. The issue, which I did not explain is that this is the watch of a friend he wants a bracelet, and buying one off the 'bay or directly I assume is a large gamble in the world of Rolex since t...
