Icon20 tudor snowflake 9411/0 '73 BRACELET ?

Goodmorning everyone.
this is the first post in this beautiful forum. I recently purchased a Tudor Submariner Snowflake from '73. I wanted to ask you if you kindly show me how to be an original steel bracelet for this year and Snowflake reference.

thanks to all you

In 73 it would have been a folded link Rolex signed bracelet. I might be off on the numbers but I’m thinking 9315 bracelet with a 580 or 380 end link. Very few of these bracelets survived the folded links are prone to stretch . Additionally the ADs would let clients pick the bracelet I have a 75 flake that came with a 7836 bracelet and 380 links this would have traditionally been used on a Rolex GMT but in 75’ the client could have requested that bracelet and the AD would do it. At this point most vintage wearers and buyers would be happy with this watch on any combination of solid or folded Tudor or Rolex signed 9315 with 580, 380 or 380B endlinks all of those fit and may have been offered at regular service in the watches long life. Ultimately buy what makes you happy I’d go solid link if I were buying just one but there is something charming about folded links tearing hair out of the arm :)

Admiralty Grey natos are a good option while you source the bracelet. Congrats on your purchase

9315 or 93150 or 7836 (per SAAS said) are all acceptable

Let us not forget the USA rivet bracelet that was also widely used during that time.
