Not sure where I got this, I've been buying cleanouts for years.
Marked 1036 & 32 in a circle.
I'm not an expert so wanted to get opinions on if it's authentic or not.
Many thanks.

It's probably legit, not super old.

Looks good to me. Maybe a service replacement? Pretty clean too.

Do you know how long 1036 bracelets and clasps were produced? My understanding was that there is a modern equivalent bracelet with a different reference number, but I'd be interested to know roughly when that switch happened.

I don't think the bracelet was used past the mid 1970s at the latest and even that might be generous.

The resin identification code on the bag (little red triangle recycling logo) wasn't introduced until the late 80's so they must have kept producing parts for them at least until then.
