1973 Datejust Jubilee Bracelet

Hi - I recently was gifted a 1973 Datejust 36 but the bracelet is slightly small. The bracelet is set on the longest setting available. Is there anywhere I can get additional links to add? I have been told that Rolex only keeps spare parts for 25 years after manufacture. Any ideas are appreciated.

Welcome!! If you post some pics of the bracelet we could help you out. The bracelet sometimes doesn’t correspond with model necessarily. We could totally help you out but pictures would be needed.

Did you go to your local Dealer?

Rolex keeps parts for 25 years after discontinuation, not after manufacture, or until they are depleted.
