Does Rolex sell new SS sport bracelets by themselves?

Let's say one buys a vintage Submariner on eBay, like a 5512 or 5513--but they don't come with SS bracelet.

Does Rolex sell new SS bracelets that will fit vintage subs? And if so, what do the bracelets list for?

Yes they do. Cost for a 93150 with 580s -- correct service replacement for a 5512/13-- is about $825 USD.

Call your AD. My AD had a brand new oyster bracelet for sale in their display case when I last visited them in early January. I believe it was around $1000.

I was going to see about swapping out my Platinum Yacht-Master bracelet for the new GMT IIc bracelet (like someone here did, I really like the new clasp) until my AD called to get a price. Told my @ $1600 before my discount!
I told him thank you and never mind.

I think you may have misunderstood how the one member modified their YM bracelet. All he did was purchase the Daytona clasp and swap out the original YM clasp for the Daytona clasp. It's not necessary to replace the entire bracelet. I think just the Daytona clasp is something like $200-300.

You could also buy vintage Rolex bracelets on classicwatchparts.com and vintagewatchparts.net/shop.

Didn't think of that. I'll look into it.
