A happy day for me....

I finally found a really nice 7835/19 on Ebay for my 6694; I wanted a genuine Oyster bracelet of the right age for my watch to replace the aftermarket one, and am now the very happy owner of a 7835 dated 4/71 which I think is really spot on for a watch with a 3311xxxx serial; I had purchased a set of 257 endpieces a while back which are correct for my watch, good move as it happens, as the bracelet came with 261's which are a completely different shape, and now in my 'bits to trade' box, I'm just popping it all through the ultrasonic cleaner and will fit and photo soon

Regards

Dave, grinning like an imbecile in London!
