i have to disagree on this one, solid end link bracelets in solid gold started in the 60's, in solid gold including this was the case even in the super jubilee style band for the gold datejust (a bit later 80's for sj) and machined lips started way back in the 60's with the 1803 on the case, an 80's band will fit a 60's 1803 no problem, however, the curve of the endlink is ever so slightly different (straighter) and less curved on older ones
