got my pink gold datejust in good news and bad

I just picked up a nice pink gold two tone datejust from the 60's, the good news is it's in fine condition and the hands which looked yellow gold on the original photos, are correct and original pink gold, that is great, it was prooving very hard to source correct pink gold hands. Bad news now the band is about 3 full links to small for me. Anyone know where i would get folded pink gold links ? heres the watch.

Maybe try a WTB ad on VRF, you never know what'll turn up. Also, you might check with Michael Young at Classic Watch parts.

Beautiful piece you have there!

If it doesn't bother you that much, i would let it be as it is.

Congrats on a classic and very nice TT DJ. We all love TT DJs, don't we?
Mine says howdy.
