Hi, I just won this auction: https://www.ebay.nl/itm/Original-Vi...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network I need some end links for this braclet, but I am not sure if the new 633 bracelets will fit. How difficult is it to find the old ones? Thanks
They are the same, only difference should be that old ones have "633" stamped on them, and new ones have "633" etched on the end links. If it doesn't matter to you just get new ones. That seller also was selling the 633's in a separate auction.
You just bought this from the auction on eBay? The same sellervwas selling the endlinks. The price wasn't ridiculous - it would have been easiest to buy those.
You got the bracelet for a good price. I have a couple, but was tempted to bid for another spare. I wouldn't stuck a bid on the endlinks though. You don't have to wait until the end.
i've personally found, there are endlinks that pop up for auction every now and then, you can get them at a good price then. otherwise some people ask crazy prices
Thankyou @Walviskroket The watch is a 105.012-65 and the original flat link bracelet was replaced, by my Father (due to damage), in the early 1970's. I'm pretty sure this 1171/633 is correct for a 145.012 & 145.022. If you have any trouble with the fit of the new 633 links, I seem to remember that Al (@Archer who is a professional watchmaker) answered a similar question, about fitting these, recently on the subject of fitting 633 end links. Give him a shout. He knows his stuff, and is very helpful.
