End piece question...

Wondering if any of you guys have any experience with putting a 93150 bracelet on the earlier "thin" case DRSDs? Rolex calls for the 585 end pieces when using the 93150, of course this is for the slightly thicker case watches. Just curious what others have used. I tried some 580s but didn't think they fit the case real well (at quick glance) and that's the end piece they call for on the 5513s.

Any help and/or photos would be greatly appreciated!

P.S. I tried the 285s that are on my 9315, but without the pin tubes inside they don't stay put very well.

285 end don't use pin tubes to my knowledge.
The series before (58, 80, 75) and series after (380,382) used the pin tubes. The 200 and 500 series endlinks did not use the tube.

Your endlinks probably just need a little adjustment.

Solved...

Problem solved, 580 end pieces work perfectly for the thin DRSD case. With the spring bar keepers they stay right in place as well.
