Question on end luggs Explorer 1991 X serie
Hi All,
I just received this very nice 27 year old watch. I see it has drilled lugs.. what I actually like a lot. Gives it a more vintage look. I see it has 588 end links and no B next to it. I read that the B is for non drilled luggs but I see the 588B end links on most explorer even with drilled luggs. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] Any expert with an idea if I have the right bracelet en links? Martijn |

558 end links were used on Datejusts and similar 20mm lug widths.
Non-drilled or no-hole case lugs need end links that are notched on the inside to remove the springbars.

I wouldn't have a problem with what you have on there. Some of the reference material that I've seen list 558 for the Explorer 14270.
