Looks like it. I'm no expert or even that familiar with this bracelet but a quick google search yielded a pretty good amount of instances.


Found the above one here and there is also one over on 1st Dibs that previously sold. Heck, there is even a Youtube video on them...

Also you may find this OF thread helpful.

Do note the example above is not a good one. But yes, they exist. But they aren’t easy to find to say the least.

Thanks @MtV I was hoping that someone with more knowledge on these bracelets would be able to provide context on the example in the photo I posted.

It’s missing two of its double flex links, instead they fitted a slightly awkward aftermarket extension. Note that those 7077s in full length only cover an 18.5cm wrist anyway.
Additionally, I don’t like the yellow that shines through everywhere on the bracelet. Not sure if it’s use or if they replated a much more common YG example, but either way, it’s not aesthetically pleasing and would only serve a ~16-16.5cm wrist.

You might try sourcing a beads of rice, which would be easier to find, and at least somewhat appropriate for the watch.

In gold-cap, in solid gold those are even harder to find than the flatlinks. Personally, I’m not sure if I’d want a steel (GC) bracelet on my soft, solid gold watch.
