1958 Rolex OP 6565 TT Bracelet?
Does any have any info that might help me find the TT bracelet for my 6565. I’m not very adept at searching through the mountains of info on TRF.
I enjoy looking through it but I’m afraid my request is too specific it seems. Anyway, thanks so much for anything helpful you all might provide!!! |

It would've been a rivet oyster or a oval link jubilee. The latter much cheaper than the former.pretty much any 19mm endlink TT bracelet will do though |

One more question.
Are the TT bracelets of this era gold capped or real gold? Thanks! |

They're solid gold, but the links themselves are just folded pieces of gold sheet that isn't very thick. On the newest version they're machined from bullet I believe. Old ones used folded links and rivet construction though

Thanks for the info. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth picking one up so my watch is complete. I have it on leather now which is probably how I’d wear it 99% of the time…. So, maybe not worth the $1200+ to just have the bracelet sit around.
