1675/3 affiecando’s

Set me straight 1675 guru’s. On a Rolex 1675/3, what is the appropriate bracelet and end link combination? The bracelet is a jubilee…. Is it 62523 with 450 end links, a 62510H with 550 end links or some other combination?

You need more information regarding the serial number for the watch to determine which bracelet is correct.

Also, the 62510 bracelet is for a stainless steel case.

Could even have an American made oval link jubilee bracelet, or Joske's Hecho en Mexico, or C & I bracelet if for north America or south and central America with 50 on the end links or no number on the end links. For Swiss, the 62523H bracelet with 450 end links is appropriate for many of the 1675/3 watches. Here is an abbreviated chart of the Jubilee but I was mainly looking at early GMTs and the 1675/3 started production around 1970. Prior to that there was only the 1675 all steel and 1675/8 all gold. The 6252 came in both all stainless, gold and stainless, and all gold, if not mistaken, before they started adding the last number onto the reference to indicate what metal(s) were used. The "3" on the end of 62523 is for stainless and gold, two tone "0" for all steel. perhaps Springer will school us both!

TL2 summed it up fairly well. Find out what year your watch is and plug it into the chart.

Brilliant info TL/ jP on Jubillees.

Just for completeness, the watch also came on a bi-colour folded link OYSTER and the correct end links are ALL SILVER not bi-colour.

1675/3

The serial number is 3169XXX. So, I think that makes it a 1972.
