    Is it possible to "properly" fit a vintage Omega rice bead bracelet and a 20mm lug Vintage Speedmaster? (105.012 or 145.012). It seems that these bracelets end links were not larger than 18mm. Were any such bracelets made with larger end links? Thanks for any advice.

    If the bracelet is only 18 mm it would not look any good .

    I've seen beads of rice bracelets fitted to 19mm watches like 105.003 but for 20mm models, I've never seen.

    these are no 6 endlinks all of the loops of the BOR bracelet fit in the opening of the no 6 endlinks, maybe 617 endlinks will also fit for this bracelet.

    This is great information. Would the 516 end links be usable as well? Thanks to everyone for helping
