Thank you, Edgar and Bruce. Now I know what to measure.


Unless the chain is made in the USA, chances are pretty good metric
size wire was used to form the links.

Can be a particular PITA if you have a gypsy in metric and try to use
it on USA chain.


I'm very confident that the chain is European. I can see the logic in
what you say, and it will be something I should consider for my eventual
(inevitable?) visit to US.
