In the meantime i was searching on Chrono and I am wondering how much old Zenith A384 A are offered for sale there. Some of these watches are fitted with steel bracelets and ZKM endlinks. These are the pics and they all look different as mine from the ZKM typing!

glad that u do the study, not too late😀

ISj wrote that because someone lost a pair of endlinks in the post the seller replaced them, this makes them fake!!! I sold them and they are not fake. I happened to have hundreds if not a thousand original Zenith EP parts and have sold parts periodically over the last 20 years.
It's easy to point the finger immediately that something is a fake or wrong without proof or back up.

Here is a typical situation when someone acts honourably replacing a lost posted item, he is accused of selling fakes, because he has more than one!!.That is why the forum is a dangerous place to participate in.
firstly, i totally don't know u, i don't know u are the one selling the endlink to tread owner, i don't know that ebay page is yours. so, it is nothing personal.
secondly, i take full responsibility on my opinion, and u can have different opinion. i am not saying i am 100% correct. but i did my homework seriously and compare with a lot of picture, and i buy physically 1 pair of ZKM endlink on hand also. the 3 charactor ZKM and the round corner is obviously different with original one.
thirdly, i never call u a scammer, what i want to say is: the endlink itself does not looks like original. maybe u buy from some other guy and assume it is original, maybe u just lack of knowledge also, maybe u just accidently have many pieces from somewhere, maybe u did not do this on purpose. or maybe, i am wrong. who knows?

Here are images of the fit of the same ZKM endlinks I sent you. Perhaps your case has been polished?

Hi! This would be possible only if my case became bigger from polishing. As you can see on the pics of OP the endlinks are to big for the case 🤷‍♂️
Kind regards

As others have mentioned, the end links sit at an angle when they’re on the wrist. The pics make it look like they don’t sit flat but they do when you’re wearing it
