Awesome Instanbul Cufflink alternatives!

I have come across a pair of cufflinks on eBay that are widely available and I took a chance on them. They are spot on with only one non SA feature. The color, size, and way they sit in the cuff buttonhole is perfect. The only thing is that the back of the cufflink has a swivel bar clasp as opposed to the ball on the TF ones. I have pictures comparing the Magnoli cufflinks to the eBay ones. (Not knocking Magnoli in any way as he does an amazing job with everything he does). I feel that these are much more in line with the originals as far as sizing and the way they sit on the cuff. Here is the link https://m.ebay.com/itm/New-Sterling-Silver-Platinum-Plated-Groove-Cylinder-Cufflinks-With-Box-1002-/332408532078?hash=item4d6517ac6e%3Ag%3AaVQAAOSwM5RZjm~t&_trkparms=pageci%253Af45ec35f-b46f-11e7-9842-74dbd1808813%257Cparentrq%253A3253947e15f0aa41562a59a9fff86deb%257Ciid%253A1

    Look good enough for me I just grabbed a pair. The ones I have pull through the cuff link button hole occasionally and I have had to add a stitch to some cuffs to prevent this. Means I cannot wear with other shirts until now!

    Just need that elusive TF PTS tie now
