His was probably SS. The President bracelet is gold or platinum depending on model.

I'm hearing two different versions of the actual size of the large links for a 40mm DD. Rolex tells me the large links are 50% (1.5) greater and the books say 25% (1.25) greater. If I had a measurement of the link, I'd know for certain as a regular link is 6mm long. 7.25 = 1.25 or 9mm = 1.5

Watchguydfw · 9 January 2018, 10:35 AM

A regular link is 6mm. How big is the large link? I keep seeing 1.25 and 1.5. If it's 1.25 that would be 7.25mm and if it is 1.5 it would be 9mm.

Watchguydfw · 10 January 2018, 02:23 AM

Sorry gang, my math was off. Is a 1.25 larger link for a 40mm date-date 7.5mm long vs the 6mm for a regular length? I'd appreciate someone measuring one if they have one.

FlyinM3 · 20 March 2018, 01:28 AM

Does approx $650 for these links sound right?

ragsk · 29 July 2020, 06:34 AM

Does Rolex still do these for the DD40? Looking for one in Rose Gold.

My AD is adamant that they dont.

Unless they changed policy in the past few months, they still do. I recently purchased two 1.5 links for my DD40 in white gold from a local AD in Boston for around $800 a piece. I hope this helps!

1.25 or 1.5?

Anyone know if you can buy direct from an RSC or do you need to go through an AD?

Terrific I’m also just about to buy a new link (full size) for my dd40... you could buy a brand new tag for that ��

My approach on non adjustable bracelets is to get as close is possible and then just “suck it up” if it’s a bit tight. Not a world class problem I’ve found over 30 years.

True Could do this but for a $39k watch, if one can go from ok comfortable to very comfortable I think it’s worth it (at least would be for me )

For me I use the adjustment on the sky dweller every day at several intervals. I have a lot of bracelet swelling due to my diet which is intentionally very high calories. And I do not have a problem with president bracelet At all if it ever gets a little loose just slide it up the arm slightly. It moulds to your wrist really nicely.

It is 1.25 unfortunately. Not sure about directly from RSC but worth calling to find out.

You gotta pay to play.

Once you get into full gold pieces the prices can get insane.

Jim Smyth · 22 October 2020, 02:07 AM

To me it looks like 1.5 and actually looks kinda odd on the bracelet. I dont think my OCD would allow for it. Also with a 40K watch I dont think anyone should be complaining about the cost of a link. If your that worried you can get them discounted on Ebay.

Thank you. I’ll call my AD and Dallas RSC to see if I can source one.

JR16 · 1 November 2020, 08:49 AM

Thanks to all of the above for the helpful info . I ordered the “large” link from an AD and got it in 8 days:

Anyone knows where to buy the WG version for a 36MM DD 118239 ? Part number is 32-22462

ronricks · 11 September 2021, 12:24 AM

Are these 1.25 links available for 18038's or 18238's? Or is is just the 6 digit models?

AD or RSC can get this for you. May also be able to find one on eBay.

Here on DD40, 8mm vs 10mm:

Called RSC and it’s still available, but no RSC center close to me. Will check with local AD to see if they can order one.
