Bracelet advice

[scooba]

I own a 1680 single red sub from 1969 , the bracelet was replaced sometime it now has a O 1 clasp code 93150 with 580s

My thoughts were to source a new 93150 and 580s and sell the old one but I have been thinking more and more about sourcing a nice 9315 with 280s or 380s and stick a wtb up for 69 clasp


I realise the 93150 wears much better but was thinking as well as its current Bracelet a period correct 9315 what do the experts think

For what its worth I have a 72 red with a very nice 9315 stamped 72 so period correct, that lives in the box with the other bits and pieces and the watch is worn on an equally nice 93150 which for my money is a far better bracelet but I have the satisfaction of knowing I could return the watch to original if needed.

Hi ,

So I should just wear it for now as is , then when a nice 9315 comes along buy it and put it away for the future just so its complete

Well thats what I have done, tried it on the 9315 and wasnt blown away although there are collectors who prefer it, to me the 93150 is far superior for everyday wear.

93150 is much nicer to wear and somehow is also original...
