Help needed regarding oyster bracelet

I recently purchased a YG Yachtmaster 16628 from 1994. The watch didn't have all the links for the bracelet. I am now looking to purchase a spare link on EBay. The seller says that his link comes from a YG Daytona 16528 from 1998.
I wonder if any one here knows if his link will fit to my bracelet?

Here is a pic of my watch btw:

Bracelet 78768 for YM 16628 and bracelet 78398 for Daytona 16528 share the same reference for additional link , which is 32-21703.

You are definitely the go to person when it comes to bracelet references.

I would love to have copies of whatever reference materials you have.

Always impressed with you.

Didn't 16628's from that vintage have end links that were longer than the lugs?

No, this is one of the early 16628's, when it had the same case as a YG Sub. You can tell by the brushed lugs.
