Found my vintage band for my Rolex
I have had a serious problem finding a new band for my 1940 vintage 18k ladies Rolex. I was on ebay and saw that a former watchmaker was selling a box full of vintage watchbands and parts. I won the bid. It took hours to go through everything but I found the perfect band and it was not easy since my 18k watch is a touch of rose in the gold. This band is perfect. Now I have 30 other bands to get rid of ! ! ! LOLOLOL
The top pic is the "before" the band is vintage but it is a completely different color than the watch. |

The band is from the 50's. It is an authentic vintage watch band.

That is a nice match. That is one nice looking survivor. I dig the original look too.

Glad you found your band! Now, put the other 30 bands back on eBay and hopefully you will sell them, get your money back and a free band!!!
