This will be my only response here on this subject .There is no need to oust the seller I am the person who sold the gentleman the bracelet back in August 2017. Andrew Guignard reached out to me several times looking for a matte 16750 but mine were out of his budget. He then bought one without a band and reached out to me and asked me for a bracelet that would fit his 16750. We spoke on the phone as i had several i asked him if he wanted period correct and specific clasp codes band codes etc and told him what i had at the time. Took pics and sent them to him. He settled on a basically like new one I offered and sold to him for $1200. New bracelets are over $2000 right now from Rolex NY. I gave him a no risk 3 day return if he did not like it. He took the bracelet to his Rolex AD who sized it for him checked it out as he said and he told me he was happy and sent me a wrist shot. Fast forward to March 2018 about 7 months after he bought the bracelet. I just came home from family functions to find 3-4 emails all of them today (Sunday) Its a family day and i am not on the pc. He says i sold him a datejust bracelet and that $1200 was an awful lot wants a partial refund. Since i didn't respond (i guess within hours)he is starting a thread on the forums. For the record he got exactly what he asked for and a good deal at that. I would have to hunt through 1000s of pics to see the band i sold him but my records show a D link jubilee in like NOS condition. I took that band off of a GMT that was just serviced at Rolex with a receipt for a new jubilee bracelet. I gave a 3 day refund for any reason and lifetime on authenticity. Did he choose to return the band within 3 days for any reason? No. Is the bracelet fake? No, He even took it to his AD to install and size. The bracelet he bought is 100% authentic. There was nobody mislead sold an incorrect part etc. Andrew was a gentleman when we spoke on the phone who had previous watch buying references and i even took PayPal from him. Normally when somebody wants to discuss something they email, message or better yet call you. Its Sunday and I guess Andrew felt that since I didn't respond to him immediately on a Sunday about a band he bought 7 months ago he was going to start a thread warning people (I just want to make sure that people don't trust the name and think they are safe. I am pretty sure he isn't planning on doing the right thing.)

But in his emails he says he would be happy for a partial refund or another band?
