Lug width to be confirmed

On this Rolex Datejust 6517 the lug width doesn't convince me, and I don't want to give you a number I'm not sure about. Write to me on WhatsApp with the reference or a photo of the watch: I'll check it and tell you myself.

What I'm asked about the Rolex Datejust 6517

What strap size does the Rolex Datejust 6517 take?

For this reference I won't give you a size I'm not sure of yet. Send me a photo of the watch on WhatsApp: I'll recognise it and tell you how many millimetres you need.

Can the strap on the Rolex Datejust 6517 be changed?

Yes, and easily: the lugs are drilled, so the spring bar is pushed out from the outside with a thin pin, without opening anything. If you prefer, I do it in the workshop.

The next step

The right strap isn't chosen. It is built, together.

From the atelier appointment to delivery, every step is made for those who know that things done well take time. Rare leathers, one piece at a time, eighteen months of warranty.
