Nice job, I am waiting on a bracelet to be returned after being serviced by Michael so I hope I am as happy as you are.

Regards

Wally

Michael and his staff do quite a job on these old bracelets - a great niche business in the big, big world of Rolex watches and a great service to we afficianado WISs! Bravo! Enjoy!
