    Hi,
    I have an option to buy a beads of rice bracelet, which has end pieces with the number 11 stamped on them (it is a gold plated 7 row bracelet)

    Does anyone know if number 11 end pieces are a good fit for a 168.005 Pie pan constellation

    I know they are ok width wise, but it is the depth I am not sure about

    Just to try and confirm what I am asking, I had a 9 row bracelet with 507 end pieces, and there was a gap between the bezel and the end piece, rather than fitting flush.

    Thanks
    Nick

    Hi Nick
    You should be just fine with your new bracelet choice. I have a 167.005 constellation (same case configuration but with no-date dial for cal 551) with a vintage 7 row BOR bracelet and #11 end pieces. Ends fit great, without any modification.

    Hope this helps. Regards
