126719BLRO WG Oyster Bracelet Half Link Exist?

[Auric Goldfinger]

Does anyone know if Rolex offers a half link for the WG oyster bracelet? Specially for the 126719BLRO.

I know they do for the president bracelet but haven’t heard anything about the oyster.

i heard Rolex does supply it, and it is about $1k for one link

this is what i have red

but not sure if it is true

I know they make one for the oyster bracelet on the WG Sub. I got one for my 12 series WG Sub.

Oh wow. I had no idea. I came in here to say I thought it was only offered for the DD.

Thank you for chiming in. I reckon it could be the same part number for both bracelets. I’ll confirm next week.

How much did yours cost?

Why not use the micro adjust points on the clasp?

I was always able to get a perfect fit doing this.

Already done and at the tightest setting.

It fits okay but would be great if I could go in (tighter) another micro adjustment. That’s why I’m contemplating experimenting with a half link at the 12 o’clock side and tweaking from there. If I drop a full link it’ll be too tight.

The watch is heavy being PM and I like to wear it snug so no movement.

The half link was USD750 @ AD. The 12 series Sub has the slightly wider (+1mm ???) clasp and therefore links. When you confirm, make sure you give them the exact reference of the GMT you have to make sure one is available.

Why Rolex only allows basically 6mm of micro adjust when the links are 10mm on the milled clasps is anyone's guess. One additional micro adjust would fix that.

Make sure you get one for the 11 series sub if that's the route you need to go down

I can see the need for a day date since there is no easy link, glidelock, or micro adjust but I see no reason for that with sub or gmt with micro adjustment.

Well noted, thanks again! That was my plan.

Would be nice if they rolled out the mini Glidelock across all the professional models! It’s a game changer on my OF YM40.

You must’ve missed post #8 where I clearly stated the micro adjustment is at the tightest setting and if I drop a full link it’d be too tight.
