Submariner Oyster Band
My 20 mm stainless steel band on my old 5513 is wearing out and I cannot afford a real Rolex replacement band.
I notice some of the fake Rolex watches have a band that has the Rolex "crown" and even a "Rolex" stamped in inside of the steel of the fold-over part. Any idea where these bands can be purchased ? |

definitely not kosher to discuss this on the forum.
I would suggest trying to get the old band repaired / refurbished. If all else fails, there are generic bands that will fit. You could also do a mix match of parts, ie, take the clasp of your genuine and fit it on the generic bracelet, etc. Why dont you upload a pic of the current bracelet? |

I agree, have your original bracelet restored.

Restoring the original bracelet is only about $500. Dont waste your money on fake stuff

Uncle Seiko may have something that will work or have a look into the amazing world of straps. So many great choices and in the end you may find like many that it is the option you always wanted.
Erika’s Or canvas or leather or nato or custom anything. Remember Rolex specked their Mitsubishi with nylon straps. And of course they are cost effective And bond wore his sub on a nylon strap. Perfect alternative/solution

Seriously? You’re asking where to buy counterfeit Rolex bands on this forum.

I mistakenly bought a fake rivet bracelet once in an auction. Good quality bracelet, but totally fake, and TBH I'm ashamed to own it. I'd never use it or sell it, so it will probably sit in a junk drawer until the day I die.
