I'm not sure what you mean by flat clasp. Is there a date code on the blade? Can you show good photos of the clasp, the blades, and the flip-lock?

Anyway, I don't think it's a big deal, but if it's a 9315 clasp and it's paired with a legit 9315 bracelet, it's likely original. If the clasp broke in later years, it likely would have been replaced by a 93150 clasp.

And also, remove the bracelet and post the first few digits of the serial number between the lugs. That's really necessary if you want to get useful information.
I can't find the forum post, I did find a youtube video and bob's listing with a 1655 with 9315, but I don't have enough activity to post them here.

The watch case serial number is 536xxxx. 1977. mk2 dial, mk bezel, both consistent.

The frustrating photo size limit makes posting a hassle, though I did clean the bracelet and take some photos. It is marked C on the blade, consistent with 1978. The sad reality is that I need to take a link out but doesn't seem to be a way without risking mangling due to having to unbend and rebend etc.
