It would fit an Airking, and most likely 19mm Oysters and Datejusts including the 6694.
I recently purchased a Rolex Oyster Bracelet 78350 19mm with 557 Endlinks .
With my limited knowledge I thought
these would fit a Rolex 6694, but would they fit any other models ? I ask because that would open up the door to consider more models in a dial colour I prefer .
As a side note I have a WTB for any vintage Rolex model that fits this bracelet and endlinks
feel free to PM me if you have a model for sale that fits this set.
To repeat does this bracelet fit any other models ? I love airkings , datejusts , and any other vintage models that work on a steel bracelet

Thank you Andy, much appreciated. I wouldn’t mind a nice airking. Feels weird buying a bracelet and then a watch to fit it. Feels like it should be done the other way around
It’s certainly a little unusual!

On the blade of the strap you should find a date code, usually a number/letter. This might give you a steer towards which watch I.e. one of a similar year. Lots of reference data via google.
Note: the straps were often fitted after the watch was made, so for example a watch might be a 85, but the strap might have been a 87. The strap never predates the watch (well I have never seen it).
Hope this helps.

I have that set-up on my Oysterdate Ref: 6494. The original bracelet (which I still have) was a 7205 with 57 end links but this was replaced in the early 00s.
Thank you guys, I’ll check the letter on the strap and I guess this opens up my options a bit
