Despite people being very helpful in Ap Liu Street i found only one place where a real stainless steel buckle was for sale but unfortunately it was second hand, and the condition of it was very poor considering a whopping tag price of HKD 1,950.<br />Finally i decided to posptpone my purchase for a while. I will may be go back there in one or two months from now to see whether there is any new arrival. In the meantime i plan to use another buckle of mine which is in platinum. strangely it has the exact same shape as the rolex and also the same "B" marking as on yours; the only difference is the logo of rolex instead of which there is not there. I guess the manufacturer maybe the same. Anyway, thank you again for you help :)<br /><br />FranAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966373502537760279.post-76970907642718000952012-07-09T08:06:42.736-07:002012-07-09T08:06:42.736-07:00Hi Fran,

In fact it is not hard to tell the buckle is fake or not. Gold plated one is about HKD$1000-1300. Solid gold one is about HKD$2600-3000. This is the price out side Rolex AD, if you go Rolex AD, price is 2X more!<br />Go to the shop along Luen Shing at nam Cheong street. and some two shops at Ap Liu street to find your favourite buckles.<br />HK snobHK Snobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08536534182778116744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966373502537760279.post-71353212994397651322012-07-08T10:09:49.002-07:002012-07-08T10:09:49.002-07:00Many thanks for your answer Mr. Snob.

Indeed I have been told that over 16 mm the buckle cannot be genuine so I ll probably try to get a 16 mm to reduce the risk of buying a fake, but please correct me if I am wrong. <br /><br />Not that i think that there is a huge difference between a real and a fake but i would prefer to find a genuine, especially if i invest in a nice strap to compliment the watch. <br /><br />How much do you think i can expect to pay for a genuine 16mm stainless steel?<br />I think I will try at the Lung shing centre, is it the shop you were referring to?<br /><br />Thank you again and best regards,<br /><br />Fran.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966373502537760279.post-73826021769327600232012-07-08T08:39:41.926-07:002012-07-08T08:39:41.926-07:00Hi Fran

I asked my authorized dealer to order it for me, he referred me to the headquarters of Rolex in Jardine House, I then called the customer service center in Jardine House and they told me i shall go through the AD to order. At the end of the day i understood that they were not willing to order unless i actually my watch initially came with it which is obviously not the case since I want to put my submariner on a strap. Do you have any idea where i can find an AD more cooperative? <br /><br />Thank you and best regards<br /><br />Fran.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
