Buy a sub bracelet and swap them. Requires different pins but works. Did this on my blnr.

Interesting theory but I don’t want extra bracelet. Thank you.

You can do it yourself, not too difficult.
Any watchmaker or Jeweler can do it.

And quite easy to do, but a lot harder to re-polish if ever needed.

That's an extremely expensive way to complete a very simple task.

Switch to Jubilee bracelet, it is less prone to scratches.

There are several good watchmakers in the US (if that's where you are located) that could do this for you, Roliworks being one. I would not try to do it myself.

Any watchmaker that has experience with polishing Rolex would be able to complete this easily, and it wouldn't cost much either.

It’s not going to look good. The grain will be slightly different.

Swap the bracelet, sub or jubilee, but don’t massacre this one out of a whim.

Agree don’t deliberately damage the original bracelet either live with it or change it for something else.
