Only the endlink at the case is 20mm. The links and clasp are 16mm. Even a clasp from the new 21 and 22mm case bracelets will have a suitable clasp that you could use.

The newer flip-lock clasps are much nicer than the older stamped version.

I believe they're interchangeable either way, new to old or old to new
