1803 WG Bracelet fit on 18239 DD

Recently came across picturesof an A serial 18239 DD for sale that comes with what seems to be an older president bracelet with a clasp (rather than the modern hidden clasp).

Does anyone knows if the end links of the older DD are a good fit on the 18239? Few pictures of sales add below

I am not an expert but will opine from some of my research.

The 180x8 182x8 and 118xxx can share bracelets. The 1803 cannot share bracelets with any of the aforementioned. The 180x8 had an option of the hidden clasp which was iirc about $800 more. I am not sure if he 18238 was offered with the same hidden clasp option.

Thanks. I like the older clasp due to the easier adjust-ability of the bracelet versus the newer hidden clasp, wonder how much stretch it has...
