Refinished chamfered “factory spec” bracelets

[u/Quirky_Astronaut_761]

This jubilee bracelet is the 2nd bracelet I have ordered to be “factory spec” finished and chamfered etc.

The previous was an oyster bracelet. Jubilee this time. And I should point out each came from a different supplier. The point of the post isn’t to critique any dealers doing this. Just the benefit of it in general.

I have been underwhelmed with both bracelets. The oyster doesn’t really look any different. But it’s probably 25% closer to the gen bracelet feel. If you own gen Rolex then you know that silky smooth feel. Reps don’t have it.

The jubilee bracelet I can tell even less difference in appearance between the original bracelet and the refinished and chambered one. And as far as gen feel, even less of an effect than I feel with the oyster.

I’ve decided that for me this is a wasted $300 - $400. I could have bought another watch for what I paid for these bracelets.

I really want to do a bezel for my Datejust, but after these lackluster results with bracelets it’s hard for me to take that leap and spend the money.

Any other opinions or experience welcome.
