Polishing/replacing a Royal Oak bracelet ?
Guys, First and foremost, good morning to you all! I have recently noticed some scratches on my 15400ST.OO.1220ST.02 R.O. and I just can't seem to get over them. I was wondering if anybody had their bracelet polished by the AP factory, and if so, how long does this take and how much are they charging for this? Also, is it possible to refinish the bracelet alone without any intervention on the watch itself?And the second, more radical option: where would I be able to buy a replacement bracelet for my watch? Needless to say that I don't have an authorised AP dealer in my country.. Also, do you have an idea about how much would it cost to buy a new bracelet? (I'm talking steel here)Thanks and best regards,Calin
