RARE VINTAGE EXTENSION ROLEX 9315 FOLDED LINK "PATEDED" FROM ROLEX SUBMARINER DATE 1680 RED 1969

NICE CONDITION.

RARE VERSION OF EXTENSION DIVERS 9315 FOLDED LINK FROM 1969.

The 9315 Folded Link is considered the correct bracelet model for the 1680 Red Submariner watches. 

Here are the important points to note: The model 9315 should be stamped just prior to the end piece on at least one of the links.  

The correct end pieces are stamped 280 or 380.

The deployment clasps were date stamped from 67 to 72 Clasps without date stamps are from 1973+ 

The folded bracelet was manufactured until the late 1970s.

The earlier version of the bracelet is known as the Patent Pending and is more expensive for its rarity and from demand by Double Red Seadweller collectors.

The "PATEDED" is more rare cause made in more quantity at the begining of folded bracelet links ref 9315.

They are stamped from 67 to 70 on the clasp and have Pateded stamped on the diver expansion when it is unfolded.

 It is not critical to have the exact year of your watch stamped on your bracelet or the date on the caseback. A bracelet that is dated a year or two after the caseback is perfectly fine. 

Unfortunately in order to shorten the bracelet, links have to be removed by a watchmaker or jeweller.

 It is also difficult to reinstall the links once removed and the links will be bent out of shape

This type of bracelets fitted on Rolex Submariner red date 1680 mark I.
