Authenticate Vintage Tudor Bracelet & Clasp

I am trying to authenticate a bracelet and clasp for a Tudor Prince Oysterdate with a 32 mm case diameter, not counting crown. The following info. is what I know:

1. Serial #BH26166
2. Reference #72033
3. Bracelet #70216
4. End link #455B
5. Year of manufacture 1993
6. The clasp says: Rolex Geneve 750 18k

That would infer that the bracelett is 18 K gold.

I thought Tudor used 14K gold until about 1999

I thought that model was Steel & YM ?

Photos of the watch, Bracelet, Clasp etc would help a lot.

I would not consider a 1993 watch as "vintage".

You may not, but there does seem to be some consensus that the term "vintage" applies to watches that are over 25 years old.

Some consider 20 years to be sufficient.
