Found a strange looking 7077 bracelet on the bay and wanted to warn honorable members to double check....

This seller also lists suspicious 516 endlinks with a zero feedback.

Why do you think this bracelet is fake?

The 6 hallmark in the endlinks is not ok.
The spring links are not ok.

Agreed about the Nr. 6's, but don't you think the bracelet is a transitional 7077, so short clasp with single stretch links?

Isn’t fake n°6 endlinks enough...
Maybe a transitional bracelet.
What do you think of his 516 endlinks ?

In my opinion, the bracelet looks okay. It's a transitional 7077 with fixed single spring links that you have to pry them open when you want to adjust the length. Yes the #6 is a repo. What bothers me is I have seen this bracelet set for sale in the past from different seller. Given a zero feedback seller who only accepts payment in the form of bank wire, I'd proceed with high caution.

No expert on these but I think bracelet is legit. Buckle lengths, expansion links and references were all transitioning around this time.
See below pics

4/60 7077 transitional with short buckle, fixed expansion links

2/61 transitional no reference 7912 with large buckle, fixed expansion links

3/61 transitional no reference 7912 with large buckle, fixed expansion links

3/61 Reference 7912 with removable expansion links

Lol!! I love how you preface it with “I’m no expert” then pull 4 examples out of the air. 👍

Here is a 7077 short buckle, circa 3/60, with the first generation double expansion links. Bought from a member (his pics) two years ago. Combined with the above examples, we can see the one year transition from the 3/60 Reference 7077 to the 3/61 Reference 7912.
