HELP ! ! Did i bought a FAKE bracelet ?

Hi everyone,

I recently posted a WTB for a Steel 62510H jubilee bracelet and bought this from a fellow senior forumer. Im not sure whether i bought a genuine / authentic bracelet as it looks a bit odd to me.

Well , im sure the buckle and one of the link of the watch is genuine but im not sure whether the long jubilee bracelet ( those without the screws ) are authentic and also the end link

Its after all the while i never come across such bracelet. The number of points that im concern is

1) The jubilee's link size is different comparable to the one which doesnt have screw. ( Notice the first 2 link from left is bigger than the third & forth )

2) One of the screw even screwed out longer than the hole.




3) The looks of the other side of the screw link is different . ( The one on the far right is genuine which i mentioned ) The third and forth from the right is odd looking.



Here is the picture from the other side



4) Here is the picture of the end link



5) Well , the buckle looks all good to me and seems genuine

Remove the link and look from the side, at the centre links, those suspect links may be aftermarket, if you take a photo and also show us the screw and link in a photowe may be able to help.

After having another look, is the otherside of the clasp the same, a miss fitting first link, maybe the whole link section has been changed out, clasp may have been put onto an original Rolex clasp and endpieces.

Maybe all the pieces are original, but it is definitely a "franken" which I would not accept. Even less from a reputed forumer.
