Noticed a slight difference in finnish on a replacement 93150 from 2009. Has the little "lock" part on the clasp been replaced?

Found out the part is called "Fliplock". Could this have been replaced with a non-genuine fliplock? It feels good and clicks nicely, but the change in finish is very apparent.

The different finish is normal.

So the odds are that it's genuine and a replacement part, or could it be orignal with the replacement bracelet and still differ in finish?

The fliplock finish looks original.

Here’s mine if it helps - from the late ‘90’s.

The grooves on the fold over keeper on yours aren’t as deep but can’t say why - maybe in-house fabrication is different now.

Well...You said your replacement bracelet was a Finnish replacement.

Perhaps the Manufacturer in Finland does things differently.
