Offering this one up to anyone who would like something else to wear around the pool this summer. I bought it a few months ago and have since replaced it with the Blue Lagoon. It was very lightly worn by me, on another bracelet. The original bracelet is unworn and never sized. (it still has label attached as you can see from the picture) It's the complete set with Boxes and books. Offered exclusively here at $180.00 nett. ** Shipping at cost. I have included a couple of pictures but the watch is in excellent condition. If you need more - text or WhatsApp me at +1 (214) 404 9513

The trees were in desperate need of a trim and I decided to do it myself, to save 500 bucks. No power tools so it's taking a lot longer than expected, plus my lawn is covered in branches now. Didn't think this through. You should have called. I have the tools and would have been happy to help!!

I meant to post this when I got the bracelet back. All that wrist grime wears down the pins on all bracelets. This does help demonstrate the extent of the wear.

carl I would second that statement by CHIP . There are a lost of great dealers out there that I, and others, know of. That said are there threads for recommended newer watch and vintage watch dealers threads somewhere we could add to CHIP ? You guys, I really appreciate all your suggestions and sentiments. However, the logistics of buying from the U.S., from an AD who I don't already know, then shipping to Canada. Not to mention the taxes and customs fees I would have to pay. Plus the low Canadian Dollar now works in my favour. I would have to get a discount of 30-40% to be able to make it worthwhile.
The only place I would ever consider buying from is Timeless Luxury Watches, and unfortunately they don't carry Rolex.
Cheers, Carl
carl your point is well taken.

I finally decided to send my Jubilee Bracelet to Michael Young, in Hong Kong. The only mistake I made was to send it USPS as it took nearly 3 weeks to get to him. While M. Y. says to allow 6 - 8 weeks to get it back, he sent me an email to tell me that it had arrived with him March 13 and it is back with me today, March 30. Cost was $150.00 plus $28.00 return shipping by Fedex (un insured as used watch parts). M. Y. communication and workmanship is excellent. A couple of pictures: Before Just now In looking back at this old post, I realized that I did not post a picture of the how the pins look when worn that result in the stretch. I had asked MY to replace the screw pins because the heads were damaged. He sent the old ons back. You can see how the pins wear down from the links in the bracelet and that wear over all the pins results in the stretch seen in the first picture. upload image jpg
