marcoxxx1984 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Posted December 25, 2009 Hi friends! Happy Xmas!!! Finally I got one amazing franken 1655 but my bracelet is completely rubbish.... so I NEED ONE 78360!! any idea of where getting a good one?? the 580 endlinks would be the cherry on the cake.. Thank you so much guys!
alligoat Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 Wholesaleoutlet990 on ebay has the 580 end links. To find a 78360, you may have to look over at VRF, TZ or ebay and buy a gen.
btocamelo Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Sorry for the necropost....but WO does not have the 580 endlinks..... who is the latest source for correct 1655 bracelet ("580" or "380" end link with 78360 or 7836 bracelet stamp)?
btocamelo Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 Mary does not have the "580" endlinks nor the 7836 bracelet.........any other bracelets that are compatible with 1655?
Mapman57 Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Sorry for the necropost....but WO does not have the 580 endlinks..... who is the latest source for correct 1655 bracelet ("580" or "380" end link with 78360 or 7836 bracelet stamp)? Josh sells his latest folded 7836 bracelet and endlinks for $55 plus shipping - same as he supplies on his so called 1:1 1655 - well reviewed across the forums - had one, very, very nice! But not 580 end links - with 358 end links! Looks even better after ageing......... Edited October 12, 2010 by PMMUTD68
Mapman57 Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 You can pick up 580 end links from most 93150 rep bracelets - like those supplied by PT on his vintage range of Rollies - 1680, 1665 etc
btocamelo Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 I'm not sure that folded bracelet is correct with the 7836 stamping? Maybe the jubilee bracelet is Ok...but, most of the GEN 1655 I'm seeing have the solid bracelet.
highoeyazmuhudee Posted October 16, 2010 Report Posted October 16, 2010 doesnt mary sell the same one? only cheaper...
Mapman57 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Posted October 16, 2010 doesnt mary sell the same one? only cheaper... It was $80 last time I saw? Thats great if it's less now?
Mapman57 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Posted October 16, 2010 I'm not sure that folded bracelet is correct with the 7836 stamping? Maybe the jubilee bracelet is Ok...but, most of the GEN 1655 I'm seeing have the solid bracelet. Yes, absolutely correct in the sense that the 78360/580 was the OEM bracelet for this piece. But the 1655 does date back 40 years and spans over many years of its model life; and as you know, many vintage pieces are used/assembled to many bracelets from the period, during their lifetime. Is anyone selling a decent 1655 Rep on a 78360/580 combination?
btocamelo Posted October 16, 2010 Report Posted October 16, 2010 doesnt mary sell the same one? only cheaper... I checked with her....she only has a bracelet with the endlinks stamped "538"....she does not have the 78360 nor 7836 bracelet..... The only place I have seen a correct 78360 bracelet with 580 endlinks is on Ebay...from sellers in Asia....and they are going for big bucks $500+..........which makes me wary of whether they are genuine bracelets or just well made REPs....after seeing some of the Rolex stuff the Yuki, NDT and Phong put out....it's easy to be skeptical of whether something like that bracelet is GEN
