    Now that I studied the two different bracelets, the 1503 shown on the 120 is a 9 row BOR (7 narrow beads, two wide) with the necessary end links to fit your watch perfectly. The one you have is a 7 row BOR (5 narrow beads, two wide) with as you said, 18mm end links. You won't be able to fit the wider end links to your watch because they won't attach to your bracelet. You can probably attach the bracelet you have, it will just have a 1/2 mm gap on each side. Try it and see if you like it.

    Might be hard to find the 19mm ends for the 7 rows. They do exist but I've never seen them on eBay.

    The 7 row does look nice, but I think the 9 row is better in practical terms.

    Any idea what 18mm end links would come on a 166.002? Was thinking of getting a BOR for my 1965 Seamaster.

    There are at least two different round shaped end links in 18mm for the 7 row, any of them would fit your watch (511 is one number). The 9 row has sharper edge profile that I think would go nicer on your watch.

    I do like the 9 row much better. Is there only one choice for end links in 18mm for nine row? Sorry for all the questions..

    I think there are at least two also, one is 70.

    If there are no questions, this would be a boring show off place. :D

    I would go for a 9-row with the 19mm "614" stamped end links!
