rolexconfuse Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Maybe I'm not exactly bright enough but why are they so many different prices for SS osyter style bands? Stainless steel Flip lock Osyter style band from Milano for $220, from http://www.tnsdiamonds.com/rolexBrac1.htm for $450, and on ebay for $54.95 Can someone explain I am missing? They all advertise that they use 316L steel . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The steel may (or may not) be the same, but there is usually a noticeable difference in the fit & finish, which is what accounts for the price differential. I can vouch for the Milano bracelets being nearly Rolex quality. You can often swap the unbranded clasp for a Rolex branded rep or gen.

Heywood Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I too can vouch for the quality of the Milano bracelets-they are of excellent quality. The hosers at tns diamonds sell the Milano bracelet for a huge markup-typical jewelry store rip off pricing. The cheapos from ebay suck. There are some new MBW bracelets that are of very good quality. I've been lucky to have picked up a couple of them second hand. I don't know of a source for these bracelets though. Hopefully one of the dealers will begin selling these, they are a superb value in comparison to other bracelets I've found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
