Need advice

The bracelet screws on my sub are nicked/jagged a bit and although it’s a minor issue I was wondering if anyone can recommend how to replace them? Is it worth having Rolex or a watchmaker do it or can I purchase the screws and screwdriver myself?

Not sure how old your watch is, but good chance they're secured with loctite. Hence, why they look so rough. If so, the bracelet will need to be warmed up either at an AD or you can try yourself. I'd want new screws, but that's just me.

Yeah I’m a little particular with my watches so I’m going to have to look at getting it replaced by an AD, I just wonder if they have screws in stock or if they’ll have to order them.
