I have this A serial 16570 which I've got sometime back. I love the comfort and ease of the bracelet. I don't think it needs any repair as of yet but I don't want to spoil it as well. Do you guys think this one needs to go and meet Michael Young? Will it help bracelet to become 'young' once again?

If you guys think, it can work well for sometime more, I can probably wait for another year or two and then send it. Let me know, Thanks.

If it's not ready to go it's getting close.

jwill051 · 12 January 2016, 06:23 AM

I think I would wait a bit. Not quite ready.

Ferdelious · 12 January 2016, 06:26 AM

Might as well. For the cost its worth it to have the watch looking like it should.

capote · 12 January 2016, 06:31 AM

He had a measurement of when it is good to go, can't recall what, but maybe a thread search will bring clarity.

Lordofrolex · 12 January 2016, 06:32 AM

i would wait a little

Boaters · 12 January 2016, 06:34 AM

Six one way half a dozen the other.

sickened1 · 12 January 2016, 06:43 AM

Adam told me on my thread to shoot him an email with some pics of the bracelet and I did. Michael will let you know if he thinks you should send it in or not.

opaline460 · 12 January 2016, 08:23 AM

no rush give it another 10000 miles.

FTX I · 12 January 2016, 08:25 AM

If it bothers you, yes.

nyyankees · 12 January 2016, 09:58 AM

That's got a ways to go yet. I'd wait.

Rolex57 · 12 January 2016, 10:22 AM

Screaming!

Have you sourced what a brand new one would cost you from Rolex?

luvsub · 12 January 2016, 01:01 PM

Not that bad.

joli160 · 12 January 2016, 07:09 PM

No, wait a few years

crowncollection · 12 January 2016, 07:35 PM

Not yet IMHO just clean it up refinish it

My A series bracelet was similar to yours. Along with servicing the watch head at RSC, I sent my bracelet to MY. We'll see which comes back first. A brand new bracelet costs 8x the price compared to restoration

I'd leave it. It's not that bad at all

Danny83 · 12 January 2016, 11:50 PM

I would send in

Tomas Eriksson · 12 January 2016, 11:56 PM

No rush, I don't think it's bad at all actually.

HogwldFLTR · 13 January 2016, 12:18 AM

To me looks very functional; I'd wait.

superdog · 13 January 2016, 12:31 AM

That would bug me.

Time to go.

watchwatcher · 13 January 2016, 02:24 AM

It's pretty much a split decision if you ask us...the real question is going to be, does it bug you?

Thanks every for the response. As this is split decision and also I don't find it bad to wear and actually very comfortable, I'd still around for some more time and then send in later. Anyways, its going to meet Michael Young sooner or later!

Bessdressed · 18 February 2016, 02:44 PM

What's Michael's contact and prices?

Just email him for a quote. He usually answers pretty fast.

Oh and welcome to TRF!
