Hi Jamey, I'm having the exact same problem with my "UP" end links. I was tempted to shave them but held off.
just an update on this thread. I wasn't absolutely sure about the compatibility of "UP" with Nina and its clear that they will fit with slight modification. I've seen a post on this forum by Paul Gavin with these fitted to his Nina. I have just landed a Uni Sonic complete (pictured) with a GF bracelet from the 1st quarter of 1969. It came with "UZ" links which are 18.8mm. I fitted the bracelet to my Tri Compax and it seems to fit OK with UZs. Its a tad short of the rounded part of the case. I have updated the first post accordingly.
Thanks to all that have contributed to this thread so far. Please keep the information/pictures coming.
Do we know now what are the correct ends for the Nina and Tricompax. Seems that the "UP" ends will fit with some modification. What did it come with originally?
No way this thread of collective knowledge should be sink to the deepest abyss. This is too useful for every collector that loves UG.
Just to add to this, UC links fit on case number 869119/** (the grey dial) and UW fit on the other case (the black dial, unfortunately only some of the numbers are visible). They are not interchangeable, UW are 18mm and UC is a little smaller, about 17.5mm. The grey dial is circa 67-68 and the black dial is 1970. *if anyone has the case number for the one with the black dial please let me know* Sent from my SM-T350 using Tapatalk

I also have one of these bracelets with "U" endlinks. They are 22mm I was told it originally came attached to a similar Compax
