Clasp Question

Hi, everyone!

I have this loose 78360 clasp with a year code of "H" for 1983. Just want to ask fellow members if this clasp is authentic or not:



Any comment or remark will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks for the positive opinion, springer. I made this thread because I was told the clasp could be a fake because there is no 78360 hallmark on it. I just want to get third party opinion/s, so to speak.

Again, thank you for the positive remark, springer! :)

Very common on the older bracelets to not have the bracelet number on the clasp. You'll also find some without date codes.

Thank you, crowncollection! If you don't mind, may I ask what made you say it is genuine?

Stampings are correct and quality is right it's very usual not to have band reference at this time
