C&L rivet bracelet query

Afternoon,

I’ve got a C&L rivet bracelet that seems have a rivet that looks either rusty or replaced.
I’m a little nervous wearing it (not sure if that’s necessary) is it something that can be easily replaced. I’m UK based.

Many Thanks
Jason

The maker is C&I. IIRC, there is someone in the UK repairing Rolex bracelets and it was mentioned in a previous thread. Maybe you can search.

I have had Rolliworks repair open rivets in the past. Last I checked Michael Young would not repair the rivets on these.

Hopefully you find someone in the UK otherwise Mike at Rolliworks can do it.

I have worn many old rivet bracelets with the discoloration on the rivet and had no issues. I wouldn't worry about it unless you notice it breaking or causing an issue.
