Last Day

I wore this watch since(pics below) 2005 and Monday it will my last. The best part is I get to go shopping for my next Rolex. My question is I got my eye on a Rolex Tridor Day-Date, But I saw this

In his blog he states that "The LINK on the Tridor is both glued and lasered with minimal contact area". I want to know is this true.

thank you

I HIGHLY doubt they just glued it together. Then again, I'm not a Tridor expert

What are you going to do with your 5513?

That is correct, all the gold models are held together with Superglue but on the SS models they use Elmers white glue.

Tridor endlinks design is a little different than normal president this is true but it is not a common occur at all, first I have ever heard of this anything man made can fail once every blue moon. It's a gold weld/ solder to my knowledge, any jeweller/goldsmith could fix that and make it stronger than original IMHO

@MonBK:You got me!
@Crowncollection: Thank for the information, I do believe in wearing my watch and I did not want it to fail while I working or playing a sport.

I would get a jeweller to fix both end links stronger. The rest of the band is the same as any other band, very strong.
