The bracelet is the same, the Rolex service has done a great job.
the pieces have been returned to me because I asked for it, they usually do not return it, they told me that there are people who sell the pieces, and they are parts with defects.

What work did they do to the bracelet?

A slight polish, and I was surprised by the work.

I see extra links in a baggy, did they change out some of the more worn links? Or just resize it?

It must have been waaaay too big before. Even one link makes a huge size difference on these bracelets.

:Nice watch I also have a 18078 from 1979. Looks to me your case has been over polished by rcs. Nothing wrong with a light good polish, but your edges look rounded over and the bezel is dull and flatten. Just me opinion

pc109 · 24 December 2019, 11:04 PM

Beautiful! I actually like Day-Dates cleaned up as much as Subs beat to hell. Your brushed lug edges make a clean transition to the polished sides IMO. No brush marks are bleeding over to the polished side. Looks like you’re ready to add another 40 years of adventure to this classic timepiece! Wear in good health and happy holidays.

it may be an effect of light or photography, but in reality the edges are well sharpened, taking into account that before it was in a very used state

Thank you very much, in 40 years I hope my daughters enjoy it

Hola Rafael, she sure will! I have my father's DJ from 1955 and it's an amazing feeling just to look at it!
