Help identify please

Hi TRF folks -- I got this watch as a gift, and would like to get a link for the bracelet to fit my fat wrist. So, I got to searching around and found this forum and ... that there is a crap-ton of stuff I don't know about watches and about this watch in particular. :)

Any help identifying this watch much appreciated. The number engraved under band is 2989385.

@crowncollection yay! Pleased to hear it looks like the Jinuwine article! None of the bracelets I've seen pics of online have the same clasp.

Looks like a 1970s Rolex OP with a RUSA bracelet. Finding links will be rough but doable

I would guess 1960s, could be a 1002. Oval links (as stated previously). most likely 9 ct (is there a big 9 on the clasp?). At that time bands were make all over the world (USA, Mexico, Argentina, Japan, ...), the clasp look OK, I have seen a number of them.
