I got it from overseas forum. Seldom see local selling here

i was lucky and bought a used 78360 for $600, if i remember correctly, at a second hand dealer in china town - i asked on a whim when i was passing by, inspected it and bought it as it was in good condition.

just keep asking around (like i did) and you MIGHT get lucky... if you don't ask, you won't find out.

you will find most bracelets in "quite good" to "good" condition are being sold for US$700-750 on the internet forums. very good to mint are US$800-1000. new or like new will generally top out at 1,250.

you can consider looking for a 78790 (exp/exp2) online as they are generally cheaper compared to 78360/93150 - the only difference is the clasp (please bear in mind that 78790 is different from 78790A).

it comes with polished sides and the added benefit of a shorter (more comfortable) flip lock clasp. they usually come with 501/501Bs.

you'll just need to find the correct end links for your sub to fit - these are all plug and play/interchangeable for modern non-SEL oyster bracelets. generally 580 for subs and 501 for exps.

if your watch has SEL cut outs (any gmt2), you can even consider a 78690... usually (!) cheaper than 78790A if you are buying it right.

your next best bet might be to track down a tudor 78360/93150 and swap in an appropriate rolex clasp. the bracelets are identical (tudor/rolex), including model stamping on the link closest to the end links. however clasp codes/stamping differ. the material used is the same, as is quality.

but prices for tudor bracelets and clasps have been rising in recent years... and you might find it not such a good deal these days, but hey, never try never know.

finally... there's always the option of jubilee. cheap, plentiful, and in all conditions. US$150 to restore and use for another 10-15 years.

good luck!

Thanks for sharing guys. I need the bracelet for my wife's 14060. Her wrist is Abit small hence thinking of getting a spare one and remove the permanent link to fit her size.

Good advice.

Sometimes i still wonder if i should have sold the jubilee although i never quite used it....

You can remove the permanent link nicely and reinstall when the time comes.
Dont really need another bracelet.
Another alternative is to get a generic bracelet

I have several spares but recently bought a few heads so already used them up.
Let me check with my overseas contacts.

For 93150 it should be about usd900
For 78360 it should be about usd750

[Dunbine]

Any idea where can I go to get the permanent link safely taken out so I can replace it back again when needed. Thanks.

I have an 80s sub 93150 bracelet with 501b endlinks and fat springbars.
Condition is 70% with scratches and sone stretch but easily polished away.
Has 10 links.

Very good as project bracelet.

USD720 is my best.

Currently on my vintage Tudor snowflake sub

How did you come to the conclusion that the 78360 or 91350 bracelets can replace that of the 14060?

I am also looking for a solution for small wrists for my 14060. Strangely, I don't have a problem with the bracelet of my Explorer 2 16570 and I think it boils down to the size of the clasp.

Both Confirm can fit but for 78360 must make sure endlink is meant for 40mm watch becos it also comes with endlink for 36mm watch.

The clasp size also adds "length" you are right.
So a 78360 with 10links is shorter than 93150 with 10links.

Interesting. I did a search on the internet and found out that the 14060 uses the 93150 strap and 501B end links.

If I am not wrong, the original 16800, 16700 and 16570 all use the 501B end links. Bracelets and end links combination can be found below.

16800 - 93150/501B, 93250/SEL

16700 - 78360/501B, 78790A/SEL

16570 - 78360/501B, 79790/501B, 78790A/SEL

Does anyone know what SEL mean and if it can be used on the 14060 or is it only those bracelets that uses the 501B end links that I am limited to?

[parchiao]

It looks like as if the SELs do not fit the 14060, so the 78790A is out.

Just a correction to the bracelet of the 16570, it should be 78790/501B, not 79790/501B.

[Trinidad]

For 16570 and 16750 in the 80s to early 90s

They used 78360 bracelets with 580 endlink

Will it suffice to just swap out the clasp of the 91350 for that of the 78360?
