Inherited a 16013, got any strap recommendations?

The day my father bought a wedding ring he bought a Rolex.

He always said it was because “I knew I’d never had any money after getting married”.

Well, he passed away 2 years ago and I have been wearing his 16013 during the work week. Today one of the small gold links came lose and before I noticed it’s partner link also failed and the bracelet fell off my wrist. I figured why not learn from the community on straps and aftermarket. If I was looking for a replacement strap, what would be my best option?

Also if I can find one of them for sale I may need to pick that up but I feel like that might be a tall order outside of sketchy eBay links!

This watch was beaten around on oil rigs and in work vans for years. I also have the original box, warranty cards, etc.

Happy to join the community and grow my knowledge and collection, all while improving my style.

Welcome to the forum.

Try contacting Rolliworks in California and ask them about your bracelet. Back and forth between Canada and the US should not be a big deal.
