    Found a deal on Craigslist for a Tissot watch with cards, box, replacement links and everything, but the seller mentioned that there is some scuffing on the band. I'm doubting that it is as bad as he is making it out since the watch itself looks immaculate in pictures, but should I want to replace it with the same OEM band anybody have an idea where to look or purchase online?

    Oh almost forgot the model is a PRC 100

    I have not, but people on various watch forums have used them with success, from what I've read.

    Thanks although i'm not sure I will need a replacement now. Picked this up today and it's in better shape than I thought. Probably a quick buff at a jewelry shop and it should look good as new again. Now if i can just find a jeweler who wants to add some links for me without sending my watch to Switzerland.

    Unless Tissot does something really strange with their bands, you should be able to buy the tools that you need to add links by yourself on Amazon for about $20. Then you just need to source the links, of course...
