Cleaning out the ol’ watch boxes. This is a pretty chunky bracelet with 20mm unmarked endlinks.
Any ideas?

 

Wow...nos? Chunky...how thick, any other pics?
Very nice...get the watch for it!

 

made in USA?

 

Original clasp on generic band...

Yes printed on the clasp

 

Presumably a kosher JB Champion clasp but I don't recognise the bracelet so I suspect @papaebetu is right

 

Is this the same bracelet on an Aero-Compax sold by Matthew Bain? Although this time the bracelet is described as being JB Champion but doesn't have a signed clasp.

Yup, but Bain was been correct, generic bracelet and clasp!!!

Shall we say original bracelet for American Aerocompax...

 

Your information was conflicting, wouldn’t it make sense that this bracelet was for the American market? It’s all in NOS condition why would the clasp be replaced? Not likely

 

Why can't be replaced with a NOS no brand bracelet?
The right version was as sold by M. Bain, please don't worry but your
look nice but not original from Universal Geneve

No disrespect GiGi, but I can’t make sense of this information.

 

Ok, its made

 

You say incorrect with a signed clasp- that it should be a generic clasp with that bracelet.

In a period of time when UG wasn’t exactly at the top of its game in terms of consistency, you think it odd that the clasp is signed UG for an Aero.

 

That’s a JB champion band. It’s usually fitted to Bulova “Devil Diver”

 

Of course, JB Champion did make lots of different bracelets for UG.

So is the conclusion here that this is a UG clasp made by JB Champion fitted to a JB Champion bracelet that did not come from a UG watch but most likely came from a Bulova?

 

This one in photo is a put togher

 

Ask to the opener what he like more.....
