Hi OF! Longtime lurker, first-time poster.

I am trying to identify the bracelet I received with a 166.0209 Seamaster day/date I recently purchased. Sadly, I need like one or two more links for it to fit me properly.

It has "no. 12" stamped on the inside of the clasp, "11-78" stamped on one of the folding portions, and 131 endlinks.

By my (untrained) eye, it seems similar to some of the brick-style Constellation bracelets from the period. But I am struggling to pinpoint what exactly I have.

Anybody know what I've got and know where I can find one or two links?

Cheers,
jdw_atl

According to the (incomplete and possibly erroneous) information I have, the 166.0209 bracelet is a 1193 with 725 endlinks.




The only example I can find of 131 endlinks is this eBay listing, and it doesn't specify the bracelet reference.



I believe "No. 12" is the clasp reference.

Well, it’s hard to help without any actual photos of the bracelet links. Could be a 1040.

95% sure that’s a 1040. Hard to find links out in the wild though. Might need to find a full bracelet
