93250 Bracelet Question

I posted in the General Rolex Forum about a dent/ding on one of the permanent bracelet links on my 16610LV. See here - https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=847165.

Rather than have the dent polished, laser welded and, moreover, to avoid having to purchase a replacement 93250 bracelet, I am wondering if it would be possible to replace only the permanent link portion of the 93250 bracelet and connect that updated part to the original clasp and remainder of the original 93250 bracelet.

Here is the piece I would be looking to 1:1 replace.

93250 Bracelet Question

You can simply replace the 4 link permanent section with endlink with a donor one and problem solved; not sure however how easy would be to find one.

The other option is just to have laser welding on the damaged link; doubt RSC would do that (they will likely just offer you to replace the whole bracelet) but an easy job for LAWW, Rolliworks or any other major restoration shop. Hope this helps!
