Don't know, but if in doubt, pass. There are trusted resellers on this forum, try one of them

edit: The stretch on the bracelet looks awful

Too stretchy. Reminds me of a Spiedel Twist-o-Flex band. Hope you aren't paying too much.

62510 Clasp is for a SS Jubilee, not a tutone...

X2. Keep shopping. You would want bracelet number 62513.

Clasp is off steel. Likely the band section is therefore aftermarket , don't buy it you need 62523 h18 band

Real or not that bracelet has seen better days. Way too much stretch on it, I'd pass and not look back.

N9 denotes that it should be a bracelet manufactured in 1989. The correct stamping for a two tone bracelet of this vintage is 62523 H18. However, this is either a fake band on an original clasp, a mickey mouse band from two original bands, or an all around fake. Good job passing on it. Something is definitely fishy.

crowncollection is right. should 14 or 18 on the clasp. Most likely changed from stainless to 2 tone somewhere in it's life. That was done over a couple of decades, and most of the time with aftermarket bracelets. They were real 18K or 14K, but not made by rolex. This is most likely one of those
