Rolex Bracelet Repair

    Rolex bracelets are one of the most recognizable features of a Rolex watch. In fact, the bracelet is the most recognizable sign of the watch's wear and has a direct impact on the timepiece's value. You can think of it like a Carfax to dealers and watch enthusiasts. 

    When you buy a Rolex you are covered by their warranty for 5 years. Like most Rolex owners, you'll have that watch for longer than 5 years, often you'll have it for a lifetime, and pass it down to future generations. While Rolex watches are built to last, they too need some TLC after years of enjoyment.

    That's where Elite Watch Co comes in. We only use high-quality materials and state-of-the-art technology to restore the structural integrity of Rolex watch bracelets bringing them back to their original state.  More importantly, when we repair your bracelet, as opposed to replacing it, we ensure it is kept in its most original form possible.

    How We Determine The Cost To Repair Your Watch Bracelet?

    Pricing for Jubilee and Oyster bracelets (two-tone and stainless steel)

    • The price varies based on the current condition of the bracelet. The more it needs, the more expensive it is. There is a base price of $650, which includes replacing the damaged pins. In addition, there is a $40 fee per link component that needs metal added before reassembling the bracelet.
    • The best way to get accurate pricing is to send us good images of the entire bracelet, front and back, and as many angles as possible ... we then give you a price range, for example, $650 to $950 max, we strive to never go over our maximum quoted amount, and rarely do, unless there are some hidden damaged areas.

    Pricing for Gold Bracelets - Jubilee, Oyster, and President style bracelets range from $2500 and up.

    • Images must be sent before receiving any estimates.

    Rolex Bracelets Can Be Expensive WHY REPAIR VS REPLACE?

    Purchasing a brand-new bracelet will be more expensive than refurbishing the original bracelet. Rolex makes replacement bracelets for all of their watch models, but financially it makes sense to go with a repair expert to restore your watch.

    HERE ARE YOUR OTHER OPTIONS:

    1. DONT REPAIR IT - if you continue to wear it, and it breaks, you risk damaging the case and movement, which are very costly repairs
    2. CHEAP ALTERNATIVE - You can find cheap replicas anywhere. Just know the general feel and weight of these are far from the original. Most people will be able to tell it is fake.
    3. HIGH END ALTERNATIVE - there are companies out there that make almost identical replicas. While it would be tough for the average person to tell it isn't the real thing, you will know. In addition, with rising gold prices, these replicas are often more expensive than the repair would cost.
    4. SEND TO THE MANUFACTURER - The last option that you will have would be to send the watch to a service center. They will NOT REPAIR YOUR BRACELET. They will keep your original bracelet, and sell you a costly new bracelet. In addition, they will force you to service the entire timepiece, if you elect not to, they will not issue you a new bracelet. The Manufacturer will take the most time and be the most costly.When you compare the option of refurbishing to the alternative options, the answer is clear. Save time, and money and keep your timepiece as original as can be by letting Elite Watch Co service your cherished timepiece.
