·Hi! Incredible bracelet and general combo. Never seen a solid gold UG bracelet before neither.
On a side note, what is the watch reference please ?

··Color Commentator for the Hyperbole.I think the bracelet rose and the watch yellow. Too bling for me and I own 7 UG Chronographs in gold. The watch itself looks a bit over polished but the pics may not do it justice.

·interesting bracelet, I've not seen it before. It looks too small for the lug width on this Tri, I wonder if it was for a specific model or just a general option?

It's baffling, isn't it? A bracelet not branded by the manufacturer on the outside, but only on the inside of the clasp. I don't recall seeing that before. Even more weird that it is in the style of the classic cut-to-lenght-at-the-jeweller's bracelet that we see on aftermarket bracelets all the time.

super nice bracelet. true that pics show it a bit red and the watch on the yellow side. but I believe this is an effect on the ageing of the gold.

·Comments always appreciated-
I presented the watch because I have previously never come across a marked 18k UG bracelet from the 40/50's and thought it would be interesting to share
-in the flesh, the pink case and bracelet color are just about a perfect match (more like pic 1)
-the bracelet width is only 1/2 mm smaller than the lugs; of course both suffer from some wear/polishing; I would think
pretty normal for a 70-80 year old wristwatch - while the side watch case hallmark is gone, the hallmarks on the bracelet clasp are very strong; I would hesitate to label either as "over polished"
I did find a picture of a similar band with a bottom marked clasp for reference as well-
one distinct benefit of inside/bottom marking - almost impossible to polish away the stamps and hallmarks

this is your watch, or just one you have seen in person?
