Wow that's neat. Thanks for sharing. Yeah best I could find is a few other examples of 1655s on the 9315 for sale, with appropriate clasp year codes which makes me believe it was definitely possible it was sold this way as new. Other forum posts suggest that rolex dealers in the 70s/80s would happily sell any bracelet the buyer requested for the watch, I've even seen one on a correct jubilee but again unsure if it was original.

For my 1655, I just needed to tune up (rebend) the stretched out end links and it fits perfectly against the case and looks great.
