Rolex Bracelet

I have been contracted to clean out an old jewelry store in Alexandria, VA. Some of the watch heads are pretty straight forward, but the Rolex bracelets and links are a bit overwhelming. Is there a good reference guide, with pictures to help identify some of these links or portions?

Thank you in advance.

Very neet, I would love to see some pics of the store and the finds. Could be a cool thread with lots of pics. Also we could help identify parts for you from the pics. Win win for everyone.

There are many reference guides around, but none are really comprehensive, you generally need to have a rough idea of what you have, and then go from there. Dimensions are key, because many bracelets look similar at first glance. That said, the following thread might help:
