Tudor 9315 Bracelet Clasp Issue

[cchen]

Hi guys,

Need some advice here - an older Tudor sub arrived today, but the top of the clasp looks really odd and bent. It does not sit flush with the bracelet, and such an issue was not disclosed in the original ad. I've never seen this before on an original clasp.









Is this not original or just bent? Want to confirm before going back to the seller.

Thanks!

looks like mine is the same:

Does your flip lock sit flush on the bracelet?

I have owned many Tudor / Rolex 9315 clasps and they all were just like yours. It doesn't sit flush like the newer 93150 clasps do.

Your clasp appears to be in great shape as well...Enjoy your new watch!

I believe you, but just googling i found some pics of flip locks sitting much flusher than mine. For example, this NOS bracelet looks pretty straight and flush while mine looks distorted.... could it be that the rivet pin was replaced and is too long which has bent the flip lock?



or this one from another sold watch:

no, it does not, probably since I've had to adjust the first curved piece for a better close: that extra curvature seems to push the clasp up a bit. but it isn't a problem for me.
