Title: Any shop to remove the last link of rolex oyster bracelet?
Post by: diazepam on March 27, 2018, 09:42:31 PM

Hi.

I've removed all the readily removable links of my rolex oyster bracelet but I still need to remove one more segment. But because it does not have the pinhole, I was told I had to take it to the RSC. Does anyone know if there is a reliable shop who can do this procedure (has the machine) on the spot?

Thanks.

My humble advise

If removed, it will lose its value should you decided to sell/upgrade in future.

To solve the issue, simply install the bracelet the other way round.

Hi David. Thanks for the advise. That's a novel idea that I will try out.

Thanks again.

David, I have a question. If you install the bracelet the other way round, would the buckle/clasp be reversed too?

Yes it would be, but it would give the wearer a better and more comfortable fit.
