Rolex 6494 Bracelet Question

Just purchased this Rolex 6494 I believe it is a 1955 392xxx. Just wondering if this bracelet is the right one for this watch it is ref 7835 19 with 357 ends. Also can someone tell me the difference in the 6494 and the 6694

Difference between 6494 and 6694 is the movement feom the 1210 to the 1225, the bracelet is not original, it would've been a rivet bracelet

I thought they came with a rivet bracelet but I was not positive. Thanks!

If rivet, 7205 or 6635. Endlinks 57 (or 60??). Let's see what others say on endlinks.

Have you had this watch appraised? Just curious what one of these is valued at. Just bought one myself.

A bracelet from 1955 is going to be very hard to find and will cost more than the watch itself is worth.
