Anyone know what this strange looking "Z" means?

Its on the inside of a 592 SEL end link on a 93160 16660 SD bracelet from 1987.

santiagoe why fake?

I've said this before, so please excuse me if you've heard me say this already:

If you're going to allege that someone's watch or watch component is fake, you should substantiate the allegation with some facts. Just saying something's fake without giving a reason for the opinion is not cool.

I Agree!

Thanks Racer X. I fully agree with your comment but I think it was a sarchastic joke (at least that's my interpretation).

roro · 11 September 2011, 11:23 PM

Now that we've gotten that out of the way.

What is the Z punch about?

Racer X · 12 September 2011, 03:19 AM

No idea personally. This may be a more difficult one to answer since the watch is relatively new in relation to most of the vintage watches discussed here. Have you tried the general Rolex discussion?

Clay · 12 September 2011, 05:19 AM

I checked with someone I know who is as knowledgeable about Sea Dwellers as anyone I know and he said he never saw anything like that???
Sorry..

roro · 12 September 2011, 05:33 AM

Thanks guys. Strange indeed. The 93160 bracelet even has the right clasp code for a 1987 (L) and enough stretch to make me think its original to the watch. I'll try the general discussion forum.

Sorry I dint want to offense no osorry

A 1987 SD has solid endlinks? I did not know this.

I have a couple of SEL watches and this looks odd to me. I remember my first, I was so impressed with the fine print in the link......JMHO.

cajunron · 6 November 2011, 01:45 PM

Never seen anything like this before. Maybe counterfeit?

Eric88 · 6 November 2011, 01:53 PM

What is the code on your clasp? I have a couple of SD bracelets and can try to do a compare on the code vs. what is stamped on the SEL.

Hello guys, I have the exact same endlink as OP and was also wondering if this is legit or not. My clasp code says 93160 J12. Any thoughts about this?

moris · 29 July 2017, 08:23 PM

To reply to my question: I have visited the local Rolex certified watchmaker and he confirmed that these endlinks are period correct
