It's witchcraft I tell you!!

How on earth does he do that?

I am itching to find an old beat up watch for cheap, just to be able to send him the band.

Incredible, how does he do this, are the links recast from the existing gold to make a new bracelet?

Amazing results and a bargain for $1350 vs a new bracelet.

My SS Oyster hit his shop last week, so it'll be a while--worth the wait, I'm sure.
