Help with two-tone oyster bracelet
Hello all! I've been trying to source a two-tone oyster bracelet for my birth-year 16233 for a while now but haven't had much luck. Does anyone have any specific resources or even bracelet references that would fit a datejust from the mid-90s? Need a bracelet with hollow end-links since my watch doesn't have the little machined lip for the solid end-links.
Conversely, how sacrilegious is it to swap a solid steel oyster onto a two-tone watch? |

As above. RSC is worth a try. They should be able to tell you if an OEM (original or updated) bracelet is available, its serial number and how much.

The Rolesor oyster bracelet for model 16233 is 32-78363-20-3 and retails for $3350 USD.
For what it's worth, the parts page for this model does list steel bracelets (oyster is 32-78360-20-4), however I have been instructed by Rolex to not sell customers steel bracelets for Rolesor models. Other ADs may be lenient or not have that restriction.
