How many links in DD 36 plat bracelet?

Hello, I'm looking at a 118206 platinum on the used market, it's a 2014 model (or at least that's when it sold). Seller says there are 21 links in the president bracelet, but they are unsure if all are present. Does that sound right?

TIA

I recall it usually being 24 (15 + 9) as standard but I'm sure there are more knowledgeable people than me on the forum :)

Hi there are total 24 links.

What dial Color are you considering? I find the 36mm DD is just perfect.

Hi, it's the ice blue wave with arabics, very nice looking.

3 links missing is a bummer, anyone know what they cost to replace?

They are not cheap and I remember come across post discussing the price of the link, you can try search the forum. $2k per link sounds quite correct if remember correctly

Holy carp!

The fact that they are unsure of how many would steer me away from them as a seller.

I don't send money to a stranger that doesn't know anything about what he's selling. Just my two cents.

I’m partial to the Jackie Stewart DD.

But, you want an example with a complete bracelet. Happy hunting!!!

You only need to get £6,000 knocked off and you've got the missing links :)

Three links is a lot. What size is your wrist. I’m a 7.25 and have removed one link.
