    Hi there,
    Does anybody understand the end links on this 1036 beads bracelet? I want to fit it to my 1959 14381 pie pan but am not sure. Normally I see numbers on the end link. Can this be false perhaps?

    Thanks!!!!

    ...Do you have the bracelet in hand?

    I see a pretty clear "11" on the lower one.

    Hi. I already found out, the 11 fitting the 18mm. I wanted to delete this useless post but could not find out how. Sorry.

    Actually I am now thinking this is a fake because of the space in the beads. They do not appear solid, folded. What do you think?

    Nothing about it looks fake to me.

    OK. Thanks. It is just because I read that if the beads do not look as one and more “folded” it could be fake. Otherwise, the text is clearly stamped and. It etched which gave me a good idea. Also the fact that it clearly shows “aged” at the end links.

    It's the outer links on an Omega bracelet which should be solid.

    This is one by Speidel from the same period has folded outer links.
