    I purchased this bracelet on a 854b R 819 AD but ended up in my spares drawer.
    I need to sell to help fund a purchase but it would be good to find out what models it fits.

    I've heard this bracelet should fit a few models but alas without a reference number it's all uphill.

    Hoping you can help me.

    Jimbo.

    Hi, it's a ref. 10 'Oyster' bracelet that fitted on various models in the (late) 60's and 70's. On one of the pictures I see the loose end-pieces (that fit to the case): they have a number stamped in, which indicates the model they fit on! Can you show a picture of number that or post it?

    Kind regards,

    Bob

    Hi Bob and thank you for your reply sadly there isn't any numbers on tge end pieces? I've checked everywhere even with a loupe?

    Could they be after market? They where a perfect fit on tge 819 though I'm pretty sure the case was used on some of the yacht club line? If not very similar.
    It's a shame to sell it but finding a watch to fit the bracelet isn't working at the minute especially with my thing for mk xi and cal 89 watches.
    I'm sure I can use the funds else where.

    Thanks

    This is indeed a ref 10 bracelet, the most common 18mm version (there was also a 20mm version).

    The end pieces are confusing if not marked/coded. For more info on end pieces, have a look at this post: Gay Freres Bracelets End Links
