Need some assistance from Rolex PuristS.....
I have a good friend of mine that has asked me to repair and service his Rolex. That I can handle and have done so for him. The problem is the bracelet for it is shot. My friend as a nervous habit slipped his finger under it and twisted it so much the bracelet is stretched beyond repair. It is a gold Datejust with the President bracelet. I do not know the year nor the reference number but I have asked the watchmaker I retained to send me that when he opens the casebook. The watch is 36mm.
I know that I can order a new bracelet from a Rolex AD but does anybody know where I might purchase a pre-owned one? You can PM me just to follow the forum rules.
Thank you.

Agree with Bill
A lot of people dont like restoring bracelets as it seems very costly, but actually the job is extremely hard and time consuming. I have two bracelets that have been restored through Rolex....it took 3 months in fact.....well worth it
