Gold wrist watch bracelet

[Rosco1]

My wife inherited this small gold wrist watch. It still runs but I am sure that a full service will be required. It has a tiny button next to the crown which you depress to set the time.

The marks inside the back cover are 9C for 9 carat, AB  Sponsor's mark for Arthur Baume of Baume and Co., and the Swiss cross.

The solid gold bracelet is damaged with pieces missing. I am having trouble finding a replacement bracelet (not solid gold) which will fit between the lugs as the spacing is only 3mm.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Gold is quite an easy metal to work with.. have you tried with goldsmiths in your area? Of course its pricey but since this is basically a heirloom piece it may be worth spending some money on it.

There are also people who make jewelry as a hobby.. similarly to a lot of folks in this forum who dabble in watches...and maybe someone local to you could help?

Good luck!

You need a goldsmith to have this properly repaired.
