Perhaps not the most common option, but would a 7836 with 282 endlinks be ok for a 742,XXX 7016?

Perfect. They got kind of pricey these days. I do prefer a Tudor 9315. A bit easier to find but quite as correct

Yes 7836 is fine as Harry says.
I personally prefer the slightly shorter clasp and the fact it's less work to take on/off than a 9315 with the thumb indent missing of course. And even a European folded link or US coffee bean (non polished c/link) 6251 Jubillee looks smart too!
In UK in early 70s the the last of the 7928 and early 7016 came head only to dealers so you could choose the bracelet or a rubber 22522 Tropic with INOX or Acier Buckle, if you were a pauper :-)

Thank you for the feedback! That's super interesting to know re: mix and match on early 70s UK pieces.
