93150 bracelet diver extension

I have a 93150 bracelet dated 1984. It came with an Explorer II (16550). The bracelet is too short and I need to extend with two links. Questions:

1) Does this clasp have an extension sunstitute link from GMT?
2) In first photo you can see that I added a link but it looks very different because it's brushed not steel. What link do I need to match the rest of them?
3) Can I convert this back to an original diver extension clasp? What do I need to do it - link with small circle inscribed in it for pressing extension back into clasp? anything else?

Sorry if questiins are convoluted but I spent quite some time researching online and it only made me more confused. Thanks in advance for any input.

Not sure what you are talking about..

1. Don't know what an "extension substitute link from a GMT" is. Both the Explorer II and GMT used the same bracelets, including the 93150.

2. The "new" link is just new. All of the other links were brushed at one time, just brush all of them again or let your new link age.

3. Convert? Your bracelet is a diver-extension 93150 and the diver extension is visible inside the clasp of your pictures.

3a. The link with the small circle is for the completely different 93250 bracelet and has no function on a 93150.

Pull the bracelet away from the clasp and the extension link will pop out.
The one with the circle is a different bracelet.
