Interesting. This appears to be an outlier. Given the 32.2M serial, based on the conventional wisdom, if it was originally a -69, one would have expected a straight-writing case-back, and a DNN bezel of course. Very unusual to see a DON after 30.6M, so 32.2M is extremely late. Of course, it adds value in any case.
In any case, I think an 1175 would be fine.
Thank you for your response, Dan!
The bracelet doesn't have to be exactly the one that was sold with my watch. As it doesn't say in the extract, it's impossible to know, I guess. But anyhow I'm looking for a bracelet that could have been sold or delivered with it. If that's the case with the 1175, I would be happy. Some article said that the 1175 was delivered with 145.022-69 but not with the ones with Pre-Moon case backs as these are earlier ones. If that's not true, I would go for the 1175 because these ones are really nice looking and more affordable.
Any final input would be welcomed if the 1175 COULD BE the original one!
As for DON bezel: My serial is 32201....
I'm attaching some photos.
s it difficult to find only the extension links or should I rather look for a whole bracelet if I wouldn't like to hunt forever?
I’ve been looking on and off for a couple years now. The only thing I’ve found is mostly bracelets, that I can’t afford🙁
I've just looked it up. It's actually not a flat link. But nevertheless, if I couldn't find anything, it's better to have this than nothing for now. Thank you!
FYIW the service 640 end links may still be available from your local OB. Wanted to point that out for anyone who may come across a good condition 1175 but is hesitant if it doesn't have 640 end links or any end links for that matter. I know it's not period correct but my 1175 bracelet, stamped 12-75, with the service 640 end links is one of favorite bracelet combinations I own.
Are the 640 service links PN: 026ST640? Do you remember what you paid for them?
I found an 1175 and it's wonderful, unfortunately 1-2 links short... I've seen the part number above 114ST11621 but as mentioned I don't think they are actually flat links? Can't really tell.
