The buckles are 16mm, not 18mm. And, current Rolex retail for an 18K buckle is around $830!

They come either gold plated (marked "Plaque") or in solid gold. Plaque are around $30 and solid gold around $100. Here is a one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Stainl...item589276af79

Thank-you jjmcd
That was helpful. That one would have done nicely as the watch is stainless with gold. Now I have a better Idea of what to look for.

Thanks again
