Thanks! But the one un-marked is a bit loose compare to the one stamped "55".

How to know/verify if the one un-marked is Genuine?

As Steve noted, the end links do not have numbers. I can't tell from your photos, but the loose one is probably correct - it's probably loose due to its age.

Mine came with 555 endlinks. But the watch and bracelet are from 1968, not the 70's.
