Can I reuse my end links?
If I replace my SS oyster bracelet with an aftermarket one, can I remove the genuine end links from the old bracelet and install them on the new bracelet to ensure that perfect fit?
Thanks in advance! |

Depends if the bracelet has solid end links (SELs) or not.
If not, yes you can use them, but why are you looking at aftermarket parts..?

I'm assuming you want to put leather or canvas on? If not, why would you want to replace the oyster band, it screams Rolex. And please don't take this the wrong way, too each is own, just curious.

Was going to use aftermarket to keep the original from any more wear and tear but genuine end links fit so nicely. Oh well, I just have to pony up for another genuine oyster band once this one has really had it.

Keep the bracelet clean and it should last you many years.
When is does need help Michael Young can make it look like new; just do a search to see all the great work he has done...
