    I bought a watch last week from ebay. It was a full set with papers, bracelet, and don. However when i got the set....the bracelet does not really fit...the ends are too large for the lug width. I measure the ends and they are 20.5 and 21.1...the bracelet is stamped 11...which i think is for a mark2....what should i do....i dont think the bracelet can be repaired or can it? Even then it is not really correct? How much should i ask to adjust price?

    That's a correct bracelet for a 145.022 so it should fit. A 1116 with 575 endlinks should be 20mm wide which is the same lug width as your watch. If anything they look narrower in the pics.

    It is also correct to be stamped 11.

    Are you sure the endlinks are being fitted correctly before you try and fit it, they can be a bit fiddly

    a post from before had the same issue. The 1116 should have a 13 stamp on it....the 11 stamp seems to indicate that it is for a mark2 which has wider lugs. The endlinks work.....the links are too wide and get caught on the sides of the case.
