Amazing transformation. Took a 1971 jubilee from rough to like new. Even filled in a hole.

jeff7176 · 5 September 2018, 10:46 AM

One more after shot.

Just got a tracking number on my oyster bracelet, should be back first of next week will post pictures. I’ve had Michael Young do another waiting to see the difference

ROLLiWORKS · 12 September 2018, 01:41 PM

Interesting. We'd like to know how we measure up as well. We will wait to hear.

ROLLiWORKS · 14 September 2018, 11:21 AM

Good ole clasp repair? A member sent us their Sub for service but asked that we repair the whamo on the clasp.

Before:

ROLLiWORKS · 14 September 2018, 11:22 AM

A little dapping and some laser welds.

ROLLiWORKS · 14 September 2018, 11:22 AM

All done.

Sweet! Looking forward in sending my watch for some laser welding for my case!

ROLLiWORKS · 29 September 2018, 09:53 AM

Most bracelet don't require it. We laser weld as needed. Usually Oyster and president bands need welding. We have a more active thread with some photos.

Thanks for posting here and glad I found it

ROLLiWORKS · 12 October 2018, 02:59 PM

Dont let your your bracelet get this far gone.

ROLLiWORKS · 12 October 2018, 03:04 PM

Now this is why:

Friction becomes unevenly distributed. Look at the advanced wear in these areas. Had the bracelet been a bit tighter the direction would have spread more evenly and the damage wouldn't have been to severe.

ROLLiWORKS · 12 October 2018, 03:14 PM

Expect that a bracelet can be elevated 20-30% while keeping costs reasonable.

This is what worn tired gold Jubilee loops look like with new pins and tighten as much as possible without becoming stiff.

It looks surprisingly good from the front side, but the overall feel of the bracelet is not nearly as nice as one with gold loops in good condition. Notice none of the sides of the gold links are neither straight not square.

ROLLiWORKS · 12 October 2018, 03:15 PM

SearChart · 12 October 2018, 03:26 PM

Yeah I've seen ones that are that bad, they never want a new bracelet though

ROLLiWORKS · 13 October 2018, 02:02 AM

So many jagged edges on each gold link. Does make it near impossible to do a MINTY resto.

All work done in the good ol’ U.S. of A.

Yah it's big $$$ and they have to give up their old one. Would be nice to be able to buy a new one maybe 25% off retail and be able to keep and sell the old to lessen the blow.

jinikari01 · 19 October 2018, 05:30 AM

This is a great thread. Glad I came across this.

@RoLLiWORKS at what stretch mark/percentage would you recommend jubilee bracelet tightening?

I own a 80's TT 36mm DJ with 85% bracelet stretch.
