I know that there are fake bracelets for sale.
Some of these don't fit between the lugs and some need different spring bars.
That is why I buy my straps and bracelets at my AD.

I agree. However I have a 3777 purchased pre-owned on another forum. It is the bracelet model, and I want to confirm if what is posted is factual or myth.

Hi, what intrigues me is that I have the previous Mark XVII Le Petit Prince (IW3265-06) and bought a steel bracelet afterwards from a dealer. Now my bracelet has almost all the sign of what is described as FAKE in the message on the alternative forum?!?!
So I'm puzzled (not really worried to be honest).
Kind regards,
Bob
