128238 heavy bracelet? When?

Do all 118238 have heavy bracelets? I thought the answer was yes. Mine is an early one (k serial) with old clasp

Are you thinking the 116238 which early one did not have the fat buckle?

Yes all 118238 have heavy bracelet. The clasp changed from old clasp to new clasp in about 2002-2003

The change between early and later bracelets on the 11823X DD’s was really on the clasp, not the bracelet per se.

To echo what has been said, All 118238s have the heavy bracelet but not all have the heavy clasp
