Where can I get vintage ladies watch bands?

I have spent hours and hours and hours looking for Rolex vintage women's watchbands/bracelets for sale. Anyone know of a dealer who specializes in used vintage ladies watchbands? I'm talking 1930s-1950s, especially the "c" type ring.

Thank you. I've been on that site. They have a good variety but not what I am looking for. I'd actually like a vintage band, not a vintage looking new band.

I'd say those are going to be quite scarce, given that those dress straps/bracelets are more fragile than Rolex sport bracelets and thus more likely to have been broken/lost over the years. Your best bet may be some local watch shops/watchmakers.

Good luck with the search, sometimes the hunt is the best part of being a vintage afficionado.
