Any and all options for changing a gold (YG or RG) 39mm Chrono RO's band to strap?
Howdy all,
I am in the market for a 39 mm rose or yellow gold RO chrono with a bracelet. I want the option to change from bracelet to strap. From reading a post or two I understand you need the end links and screws with caps for an aftermarket strap.... however, where do I get solid gold end links to connect from the case to the strap? Also, I need a clasp or deployment. I saw there is a conversion kit via the "ap bands" website for yellow gold models, but its 500 bucks and gold plated... not solid. Im not really interested in gold plated. Anybody have additional suggestions for aftermarket options for the links and clasp? Or anybody have an OEM version they are looking to sell? THANKS A MIL |

I don't know how easy it is to get those from AP, if they are like Rolex USA it may be hard to buy anything without having them to change it and keep the bracelet. I really don't know though so I don't want to speculate too much.
To the OP, perhaps a grey dealer could help you out with those.

I think one you enjoy the shimmer of a RO bracelet there won't be a desire to change to strap...;)

Marcus in London could order all the parts for me to change my ROC 41mm on to a gold bracelet but at £16K I declined. I'm sure it can be ordered.
