HELP - What is the part name?

Hi, I have an old GMT Master with a a broken hinge on the band part that is hidden under the foldover clasp. The part is steel, curved, has the Rolex stamp, and has 2 hinges where it is secured by a pin connecting it to the over curved piece (with the buckle). Hope I am describing it correctly. I would greatly appreciate any help in identifying the part and where I can get a replacement.

Thanks!

Its called the clasp assembly and you can get a replacement at your nearest Rolex Service Center.

I think he might be referring to the extended clasp that folds under the buckle. Either way it is a Rolex only Item and comes riveted to the new clasp complete. Rik

Thanks, is correct. Many thanks, I guess that only an authorized Rolex service centre will be able to fix it. The only good thing is that the piece that broke off is on the curved piece that has no markings other than the Rolex stamp. The other curved piece has the serial number on it. Not sure how they would replace that part.

May have to replace the whole clasp assembly.
