Help me authenticate this 7836 bracelet?

Found this on VRM, anyone see any problems with it? Sorry to ask others to do my hard work for me, but I’ve struggled to find info online as to what I should be looking for:

Micheal Young. He’s a bracelet restoration socialist in Hong Kong. A lot of guys use him to tighten old bracelets.

I'm not sure if he's a "socialist"...although I doubt it. But he is a bracelet "specialist" and will tighten that baby right up for ya!!

I think I’d get on board with “7836 bracelets for all.” People don’t know what they’re missing.

It’s for a 1675 dated around 1970.

Mr Young may be a specialist socialist , he certainly seems to specialise in pleasing the watch watch masses .

You need different end links for that if you want it to be correct. The 382 end links are for Tudor as far as i know, you should have 280/380 but 258/358 will also fit rather good.

The clasp on that bracelet looks a bit odd, unless the T on the clasp actually also is for Tudor?

I have appropriate end links, so that’s not a concern. Curious to know if anyone has more info on the T S stamp, which I can’t seem to place based on the info available online.
