After commenting directly and more extensively to your original Post, Ray, I wanted to add some thoughts to John's valuable contribution here.
I also own the 2254.50 SeMPC, on the 1610-930 bracelet. However, although it is the same year as my 2531.80 on the 1503-825 bracelet (the subject of your question, Ray), there are a number of differences that go to your Post.
1. Lettering on the Bond bracelet has the square-shaped "O" in "Professional," and the 1610-930 has the round-shaped "O" (like your earlier Bond bracelet).
2. Part number "930" appears to be stamped, off to the side, on the 1610-930 braclet end-link, as on your original 1503-825 bracelet. Again, "825" is centered and appears to be laser-etched on my new Bond bracelet.
Additionally (and I'm not sure if this is a good thing in terms of options, or a bad thing in terms of continuity), its hard to say if lettering on the 1503-825 and 1610-930 bracelets is comparable. The face-length on the deployant clasp for each is the same (36mm), but the Bond clasp is 20mm wide, and the clasp on the 1610-930 is 18mm wide.
