    Rolex GMT 1675 bracelet refurbishment

    A good friend of mine is in possession of his first and only watch, a Rolex GMT he bought in Hong Kong he bought in the 1970's en his early twenties.
    45 years after, he is in dire need of a bracelet refurbishment.
    He would like to keep it as original as possible.
    Can you please recommend a craftman that can refurbish his dear GMT?
    Much appreciated!

    Carlos

    Seth the watchmaker sorted my Rolex 93150 bracelet for me. He did a great job, about £150 iirc. He is in the UK.

    i’m sure there are decent guys that can do the job in the UK, sounds like a ball ache to send it to the other side of the world and wait that long and may even attract some customs and duties.
