Damaged jubilee hollow end links
Today I noticed that one of my end links is damaged and missing one of the tubes. While I am sorting this out with the shop I bought it from (as this should be covered under warranty), I wonder whether a piece like this is usable or not. I noticed the end link being slightly loose in the first place so I assume the tubes are there for a reason. Hopefully the seller will offer to source new part but thought it may be interesting to post here.
Is the other link fine? I am preparing myself to have to buy new ones for 200$ in case my warranty plan fails I plan to send the bracelet to Michael Young anyways in the next few months - is this something he could/would be willing to fix as well? |

Easy-peasy fix for Michael Young.

Most any decent jewelry repairman could solder in a new tube and reshape the piece, but, naturally, it shouldn't have been sold that way without noting it. Flat endlinks are cheap through the RSC. There is never a reason to pay 200 bucks for them.

Send the Bracelet to Roberto Lenti in Milan. Much better.
