Rolex jubilee bracelet stretch repair

[Ollie9swy]

Evening All,

First of all Admins delete if this is not allowed here and provide feedback if possible.

Im offering a service to repair stretched Rolex jubilee bracelets.

I am able to repair all stainless steel and bi metal bracelets.

I am based in Northampton UK.

Happy to discuss with anyone the process i go through in order to repair the bracelet upon request. Just to summarise;

I replace all pins within the bracelet, i also replace the screw pins. where the clasp pin is worn and no longer rigid i will also replace that.

Its a delicate and time consuming process with that in mind I'm charging £300 this includes shipment from yourself to me and the return postage and the service used is Royal Mail special delivery. Alternatively Im also happy to meet people locally and collect the bracelet and return it in person.

I only require bracelet itself and NOT end links they will need to be kept by yourself.

I do not offer a service to polish the bracelet so please bear this in mind.

The turn around will be up to 16 working days but if completed before hand it will be returned to you promptly.

If you would like to discuss this further please email me on your.bracelet.repair@hotmail.com

Here is an example of the work i have done thus far.

All the best

Very nice. And now an affordable option in the UK instead of sending to Michael in HK or Rolliworks in Campbell, CA. Brilliant! Definitely a need.

Being in the US I'm curious as to whether Brexit would have any impact on business from the Continent?

Noob question here. The picture of those bent pins...is that what causes the bracelet "stretch"?

the stretch is caused by the structural changes in the pins. you will see the deformation along the pins. the bending is probably from the removal.

That’s correct. You’ll see down the pins they are worn where the centre links sit. They are bent from removal.

Thanks

That's interesting. Didn't realize the pins were press fitted, but haven't had one apart either. Nice

Hi Ollie,

Very interesting and I will definitely keep you in mind. My 1675 GMT Master with Jubilee bracelet is 1967 vintage and the bracelet is well stretched. I'm currently considering getting the bracelet refurbished but hadn't found anyone to do it until now. I'm still deciding but now I know you're out there (and in the UK) I will possibly get in touch.

Really? Stan and Ollie?

What are the odds...

[Ollie9swy]

Evening All, I hope your all keeping well amongst this concerning times.

Wanted to share some further examples of my work.

This last bracelet was truly on its last legs, but i'm hoping I've extended its like for another 30 years. see what you think.

All the best













Heavily worn gold links show the slight extra spacing, not worn through but i haven't learnt the art of welding gold as of yet. when on the wrist still feels tight and durable.



Feedback welcome as always

How are you removing the pins where they are so thin?!
