Or would I have to purchase a complete new link ?

ltmgeller · 9 May 2016, 10:24 AM

I'm not sure I see what you're talking about. Can you take a clearer picture?

Coffee · 9 May 2016, 10:26 AM

at the top by the endlink

ltmgeller · 9 May 2016, 10:28 AM

Is it on the gold or the ss part. I'm having trouble seeing it and I'm wearing my glasses.

I know my art work is lovely

I believe that's part of the endlink, not sure if it could be "buffed" out? By the looks of it it's pretty deep.

Yeah it's definitely in there... the other side is flawless. I think it must have happened when I was getting my band replaces. This sucks!

I've seen where guys pour hot water on their car and the dent comes out

I was hoping someone would say I could do that

Narbeh · 9 May 2016, 10:48 AM

I think it's repairable but afterwards the fit might not match the rest of the links.

Runnin' Rebel · 9 May 2016, 10:52 AM

That looks like a dent to me.

EDIT: Rootbeer ? Not a Serti is it ?

since the link is gold I am assuming it would be a few hundred $ for a new link from an authorized dealer. Not sure if it would be cheaper to weld. Personally i would just order a new link from AD if it really bothered me.

Bite the bullet and have an authorized dealer order a new link for you. And be a little more careful in the future

With regards to Michael Young - It cant hurt to check, but to be honest I cant see how you will save a significant amount of money with shipping costs and the guy has to make a bit of money. Plus he has a 6 week turn around from what I have heard...and in the end you have the same link which was damaged.

fskywalker · 9 May 2016, 12:13 PM

Best would be to replace the endlink; those are hollow based on the picture.

ltmgeller · 9 May 2016, 01:06 PM

The highlight helped. See about a new end link if Michael young can't fix it. Good luck.
