    Hi all,
    am considering adding a bracelet to my 105.012-65. I'm fortunate that the watch came with its original 1506 clasp. but is missing the band its self and a pair of end links.

    Does anyone know how interchangeable the bracelets are to the different clasps that were sold. From the pictures in the MOW book, my un educated eye sees no difference between the actual links on the bands from 7912, 1501, 1506,1035 and 1039 so I'm wondering if are they interchangeable with one and other?

    appreciate I'll need a pair of 16 end links to make the 20mm width, but can I pick any of the bracelets to go with my existing clasp ?

    thanks in advance.....

    The easiest, most cost effective, would be a 1039.

    Agree on the 1039 being the most cost effective option, the fixed links including the final links (before the end links) on a 7077/7912/1035 are narrower than a 1039. I don't know how well the spring links interchange, but there are definitely two sizes of "fixed" links. I think there is another reference of wider bracelet (could be your 1506) but I can't find that handy chart. This is a 7912 on top of a 1039.

    Thanks for the input guys,
    So safe to assume that only the 1506 and 1039 share the wider fixed links at the watch end of the bracelet and are interchangeable.
    I'll keep my eyes open.

    Any idea if the number 16 and 516 end pieces are also equally interchangeable ?

    Thanks

    I think they are. I have 105.012 on 1506/16, 1039/16 and 1039/516

    I confirm that the 1039 bracelet is compatible with the 1506 clasp. I've done exactly the opposite of your situation.
    Unfortunately i have no original end link but confirmed by @gemini4

    IMG_5664 - Copy.JPG Hi guys,

    old thread resurrected here, could use a spot of help please...

    just purchased a bracelet to go on my speedmaster 105.012-65. I was told by the seller that it fits a set of number 16 end links perfectly, however I still haven't sourced a set myself yet, so can't actually try.

    when offering them up against the watch (minus end links) they look a little narrow (a vernier shows a width of 17.5mm across - as per the picture)

    Is this correct and the 20mm lug width is taken up in the end link?, or do I have a narrower bracelet as per the picture by Toddle321 above?

    they do narrow down to the correct 16mm for the 1506 clasp.

    any chance of a similar photo showing a 16 endlink and bracelet measurement.

    thanks all - appreciate the help....
