It has the right stamping as far as I'm concerned. The polished center links need to be brushed out. Might just be the photo but does anyone think the links look a tiny bit too thick?

It's the ROLEX original Submariner vintage Bracelet Ref. 7206

There are a bunch of these on the internet. They do look chunky but there for the big Subs and GMTs from the 60s.

The date stamp in stamped upside down, Rolex don't make silly mistakes only after- marketeers make obvious silly mistakes. 7206 stamping also looks uneven, looks like it is put on one by one. Rolex has it done all at once so looks very even.

Yes. Someone must have polished them.

Take no notice of this, he is mistaken. Rolex often stamped the date code upside down. I have several vintage bubbleback bracelets that I have collected over the last decade and several of them have an inverted date stamp.
