93150 Clasp Disassembly
Just out of curiosity, can you disassemble a 93150 bracelet clasp? The inner pieces of the clasp (don't know the technical term) are stamped "ROLEX" and one obviously has a date indicator. My clasp was polished by a previous owner, and the coronet is pretty worn down. Do I really need to find a used clasp in good condition with the right date indicator? Or can I simply find a nice looking clasp, then swap out some of the pieces so that it still "has" the right date indicator? The reason I ask is that I really like having a "numbers matching" watch (for you car guys out there). I don't plan on selling the watch, so it really only matters that I know that right date indicator is there (I know, a little overboard, but once again, I come from the car world where there is just something special about knowing your car is numbers matching). Anyone have experience with this? It looks to me like the relevant portion of the clasp is assembled with rivets as opposed to pins, which I'm thinking means that it really isn't possible without damaging the clasp. Thanks!
