Perhaps someone modified the endlinks to make them narrower. To clarify everything, please post some measurements. How wide are the endlinks and what is the distance between the lugs of your watch?

Yes, as noted above, your end-links should be around 18.7mm and have likely been modified to fit an 18mm lug watch.

You would have to add 0.8mm to each side of both endlinks. In general, I would say that it's really not plausible. You should get your money back.

These wouldn't even be a good fit for an 18mm watch.

These have been butchered and unfortunately have no more value than a paperclip.

Such a shame. Hard to find as they were originally single cut No. 6's.

The earlier no 6 endlinks had a single notch in the back. The later ones had 2.

it's not original older open 6, which should also match the open 6 (ie 1506) on the bracelet.

Looks like they did not just shave off the sides of the end-links but from the top as well (watch side, if that makes more sense)

Sorry, my friend
