does RSC still sell older bracelets?

If you wanted the previous generation oyster bracelet can that be bought at RSC? Or are they now only selling the newer one

Was thinking of buying it for my 16700 GMT

.

Rolex will only sell the bracelet ref# initially made for your Watch, so the answer is yes. At least if the watch isn't to old there will be no problem.

A 78790 or 62510 or 93150 or 78360 for your Gmt 16700 will cost you respectively 1350$/1150$/1250$/1050$ at RSC.

Make sure you get the right end links for the older bracelet...I.e if putting an older jubilee on a GMT you need special end links to match no holes or lug hole cases.

You will also need to take/send your watch to the RSC. I believe they will keep your old one.

New York RSC seems to have the largest inventory.

Will they sell a bracelet over the phone? I kind of doubt it but thought I'd ask. It would seem silly to ship a watch of that value if you know exactly what you need.
