455 End links
I did something stupid with the bracelet for my DJ and my jeweler had to destroy my end links to fix my stupidity. Now I'm trying to source some new ones. I'm wary of eBay because I've already purchased some there and despite the listing, were not genuine (the seller agreed to a refund). Does anyone know of a reputable place where I can buy a set?

It's an L serial with a TT jubilee. I'm wearing my Explorer today so I can't tell you the clasp code.

Dealers are almost always the cheapest and most reliable place for end-links..

My guess is a no hole end links were installed on a no exterior holes case, so once you install the bracelet there is no groove to push the pins out; to take it out you need to deform the end links, may be damaged permanently.
