Can this screw be unscrewed? Or is this just cosmetic? This is the link that is attached to the clasp. I am trying not to use the easy link since it scrapes the sides of the second link. But I am having trouble unscrewing this screw.

Yes it can be unscrewed. Just be careful not to scratch it if you are doing it yourself. Good luck.

Hi everybody

This is my first post here

As I need to replace it on my Daytona...i wanted to ask you if the little easy link is available as a spare part alone, without the whole costy clasp. Do you know its code, and eventually do you have a catalogue image as the one here over with the easy link picted?

Thanks to everybody and happy new year from Turin !!!

I tell you one thing guys, I STILL can't get this easylink thing going on my GV!

I can un-click the link so it comes loose, but I can't move it over to one of the other 2 notches to make the bracelet tighter.

help?!

Green sticker missing

Hey all.
I just got my first rolex, and its a GMT master 2 two tone yellow gold and steel. 2 things got me worried after looking at some forums. 1st, i dont have the green sticker most rolex watches have on their backs, and there's a weird clicking feeling at the at the top of the bracelet clasp. i got it from an official dealer and everything, but should i be worried?

Welcome to the Forum.........

This is a legitimate question... You could have started your own thread rather than stick it at the end of a year old post......

Rolex has not used a green hologram sticker for a couple of years.... they are long gone...

Your clicking clasp .. sorry, can't picture it..
