I am wondering if anybody know what a new, or like new, oyster bracelet for a SD might cost?

I know that a new sub bracelet currently costs £600 here in the UK. I would therefore think a SD bracelet would be a few quid more.

the price for a SS sub bracelet is about $1200.00. So I imagine the SD bracelet costs a bit more

Hm, that's a bit expensive... Is it possible to only buy a new clasp? My SD is from 1998 so I am thinking about replacing the clasp since it seems to have been experienced some tough love before I bought it a few weeks ago

To be honest, I don't know nowadays. A few years ago a friend of mine broke the clasp on his TT Sub and Rolex would only sell him an entire bracelet. They might have changed their policy. Best bet is to ask at your AD.

You have to do some serious damage to one to not be able to bring it back to very good condition..

Check in our Reference Library under the Amateur Watchmakers Corner on bracelet touch up to see if that won't help.

Rolex will usually replace the bracelet for about 800 bucks exchange during a Service.....but that's pretty expensive to do every few years..

Why look far, if the real deal is so near!!

Right at TRFs!

The clasp and buckle assembly is available seperately from the bracelet, but is expensive aswell.

You would have to send it to the RSC or get someone(an AD or watchmaker) with a RSC parts account to order it for you.

Well, the pin nearby the safety clasp seems to be a little little bit skewed. I rather exchange that now than have the pin break and loose the watch. I might be too precautious, but better safe than sorry...

As it happens I ordered a new complete clasp for a 93150 today from my AD. Price?... £130.

SLS · 13 June 2009, 08:50 AM

I was just at my AD looking through the catalog and a 93150 with 580 end links is $950.

That sounds like a fair price, maybe I should pop by my AD. The clasp was my main concern on the bracelet.
