Does the bracelet have the no. 78350 on both the last links & on the clasp?
Usually fakes dont have any number or some odd no on the last links.

Does the bracelet have the number 78530 on both the last links and the clasp ? Usually fakes don't have any number or some odd number on the last links.

It looks gen to me bro. No offense, but I can't imagine anyone wearing a rep bracelet long enough to get into that condition. The pins connecting the links together can be replaced to eliminate the stretching.

The other member was asking about the hollow end link. Does it have a code stamped on its underside?

Normally a 78360 bracelet would come with a 78360 clasp, which is shorter by 1 (stamped) link and has no diver extension. The 93150 clasp is more useful IMO and it's not uncommon to see these mixed and unmatched in gen. My 1990 gen GMT came from Rolex with a 93150 bracelet and 91350 clasp, technically not correct for model. 91350 is a Sub bracelet, though you could not tell them apart but for the stamp or the clasp.

The clasp code RS5 dates the clasp to May 2010. The bracelet is much older as it would have SELs if made after 2000. The end links should be 501 or 501B.
