DSSD Clasp price.

Hi
I came across a DSSD clasp yesterday and purchased it , I was thinking off selling it as it was one off them buys and thought why have I bought that ,Today I called Rolex UK and spoke to there materials dept and asked , The price quoted was crazy £1170 plus 20% vat

So what seamed like a daft buy has now made me smile ,It needs a slight polish on the sides and some swirls removed from the brushed parts Then on my Sub LV or my Daytona do I polish the centre like the Daytona PCL as you can tell by my ramblings I am well happy .

Give yourself a pat on the back and then put on the Sub and let`s see what it looks like.

Agree about the crazy clasp price and IMHO anyone paying that retail price for a clasp, must be sixpence short of a shilling in the brain dept.
