1675 Case Re-finish - Bracelet Question

I was wondering if a 78790A bracelet with 801 end links will fit a 1675. I stumbled on a new old stock 78790A bracelet and would like to put it on an early 70's 1675 (service dial) that I just got back from ABC Watchwerks (Case re-finish and service). I am having a difficult time installing the bracelet and figured I would ask before I went any further. -- Thanks.

According to the chart on post 4, doesn’t look like it will work directly. I wonder if you can make it work with a little coaxing. Good luck!!

Thanks! Looks like the 78790 (not A) will work with the correct end links.
