Seiko 7A38 - by the numbers

Oh yes mine serial is 550155. Just to fulfill your neverending list.

So after all it was 450. That was in nice condition.

I have to return to clasp matter again because I just don't get your point.There is clasp in original bracelet. So you propose to purchase bigger/longer clasp to replace the original and get the extra length this way? I try to post a picture of it. PS. I do also have a nice Seiko Pogue in my humble ...

First of all I have to say thanks for all the efforts you have made with 7A38-7140 model market investigation.

So most likely I can't find extra links from anywhere for my too short bracelet.
You have any tips for nice aftermarket bracelet? The end link is so strange.
Or can I just buy whatever black bracelet and take the normal end part away and use it to my 7A38-7140?
Does it work like that?
