Help with Rolex Made in England riveted stretchy bracelet

[ledcat1]

Hi,
I have this decent bracelet that I believe is original but would like to determine which watch heads would be appropriate for it so that I can keep a lookout for the proper references.

This has 17mm end pieces. I believe the end pieces say: RD 874089. It also says 'Rolex made in england stainless steel'. That's all that I can find on it.

total length with clasp closed is about 6.5 inches. This is a stretchy bracelet.

Is it considered a decent bracelet?

Thanks for any feedback!

Band is made by wab or cyco English band makers.

With 17mm flush-fit end-pieces you'll need to look out for a Speedking or Royal boy's size Oyster. I have a few such watches on Rolex English-made Oyster (and Jubilee) bracelets...

Do these bracelets command a premium over swiss bracelets? Or are they in the same class as the Mexican and American made bracelets?

So a pretty small watch? What are they - about 30mm diameter?

Thanks all for the replies.

No price premium, and I think the Swiss bracelets are possibly a little more valuable...
