Can this bracelet be repaired?

[William Campbell]

As you can see, the pins for the 2 links for this bracelet broke.  The bracelet is from an Omega SMP300 Chronograph. I took it to a good watchmaker and he wanted $60 to weld 2 pins. I really don't want to spend that much. Can it be fixed any other way?

Any help is appreciated. 

Thanks.

No, it cannot. You are going to have to weld it

How can I replace it? Do any dealers sell just the bracelet?

[coffindodger]

Yes! Most dealers sell the bracelets. E-mail trusty time (Andrew) he can get most bracelets

My watchmaker would probably charge you $15-20 to replace the two pins. I'd try another jeweller if I were you.

Those clasps are brutal for falling apart, I think I have about 3 of them, all like yours, in my strap box!

I'd suggest Toro, he's fairly active on here!

If they have a tendency to fall apart anyway I think your better to get some new pins and bond them in or get it welded
