if I just took delivery of a brand new 93150 bracelet for my 5513, would the bracelet be made of 316L or 904L steel? The watch is a '78 5513 so I assume it is made of 316L. Thanks.

From the Rolex website:

"That is why Rolex became, in 1985, the first watchmaking brand to use 904L steel, a highly corrosion-resistant superalloy that acquires an exceptional sheen when polished."

The new bracelet may be 904L, depending when it was made. What is the code on the bracelet?
