Extra Link Cost?

What should one expect to pay for an extra SS link for a modern 20mm Rolex?

I paid $60 for mine from RSC New York. Just a standard brushed 20mm Oyster link for my Explorer.

The people there weren't my favorite (they ordered the wrong link the first time and then wouldn't install it for me), so I had my link added at Wempe across the street. The watchmaker there is the nicest guy and did it for me free of charge even though I wasn't a customer. I highly recommend them.

I recently take an Explorer 214270 mk1 in for a service/buy an extra link. Rolex charge approx $110 for each link.

I paid about $70 for one link installed on my Explorer early last year.

Extra Link Cost?

Time was when Rolex watches came with more links than I needed out of the box - and you could get up to two extra links when new. Now I have to pay a premium for any extra Rolex links despite price increases above inflation for the basic watch.
It's nice that Omega will still supply up to two extra S/S links free when you buy a watch from an AD.

Looking at the prices quoted you might be better looking at Watchfinder on eBay who are selling genuine Rolex S/S links at around the £20.00 mark.
I bought a half link off them recently as Rolex won't supply this for the OP 116000 and their service was faultless.

I think i was quoted this per link plus $25 shipping. Very reasonable for 116610 links.
