Bill its actually from a S/S GMT IIc, and it will fit the Yachtmaster.

BTW nice pis Stephen, the polished center links are showing the reflection of the paper, its much nicer in person.

Did you buy just the clasp or the whole bracelet ?

I've been after the same clasp for a while but none seem to pop up on the used market !

Might bite the bullet and just buy new.

Does look good and this will make a the YM complete :-)

Congrats

Congrats, looks real nice.

To be honest when I first got my SS/PT YM I was a bit disapointed with the clasp. However since getting my 16610 LV a bit later I find the older clasp a bit lighter and a bit more comfortable than the newer one that I have on some of my other newer watches.

I will keep the original clasp as well so I can always switch around. :)
