I have a 1067 bracelet on my 145.012 speedy
its stamped 2/67 so very probably original to the watch
it has 10 links on the 6 side and 11 links on the 12 side...

trouble is it's just a bit too tight.. is there a way to extend these bracelets
or add another coupe of links (its already on its widest setting on the clasp)

 

Yes - you can pick up additional spring links on eBay and expand, unfortunately they cost a pretty penny nowadays. This link is helpful:

ah ha! great thanks...

so... anyone got any of these spare links...

 

Ebay has some!

 

Thanks Joel - I did look and couldn't find any.. either using the wrong term or perhaps I need to look outside of EBay uk...

 

Search for Omega 1039. There's a chap selling one in Argentina

 

1067 was on 19mm lugs seamaster 120... hard to believe that it's original on a 145.012.

 

I'll have to check the extract as I can;trecall which country it was sold in... I was under the impression that it could have been sold with a number of different bracelets as the watches in those days shipped from Switzerland as head only..

...either way it's a 1067 with 516 end links

 

nope - can't seem to find it...

 

I see the issue - isn't showing on ebay.co.uk but is on ebay.com ! d'oh!

 

Most of the Extract of the Archives have the Bracelet Part "Not Mentioned". I personally never see a 145.012 that comes with 1067 but I could be wrong. Did you purchase 1067 from the link below?

Seller said it was on a Speedy with 516 endlinks. Ultimately it's a flat-link bracelet that compliments the Speedy the same way 1039 does. The end piece attached to the endlinks may be 1mm shorter as most 1067s are for 19mm lugs.

 

For a quick short term solution, You could use a watch clasp extender. they come in different sizes for clasps with different widths.

no the watch came from @Spacefruit a couple of years ago.. it was he who had said he'd seen plenty on 1067's in the past often from South American and Asian originating watches

 

By the way the end links allows to put any flat link on a speedmaster and back in the days I guess there were less interested to insure that the bracelet number was in conformity of the ones officially proposed.

They probably just put on what they have at the moment of the sale. Just a thought

 

I bought this bracelet from a seller who had this 1067 and 516 EL on a speedmaster 145.022. At this time I was in need of 516 EL (despite I am still unable to get correct 16!)

 

It's not only a question of bracelet reference number... a 20mm wide bracelet will fit better a speedmaster with 516 than a 18 mm wide like this one.

 

The 1067 was 19mm if I am not wrong so it means that the last link before the EL is 19=> minus 0.5mm on both side in comparison of a correct bracelet for a speeedmaster => almost invisible IMHO

 

I had a 1067 that was 18.6mm and that's not invisible to my eye..

 

I understand, anyway it is more like a 2nd chance bracelet (cheaper) rather than a good one!

 

My 1506 is 19,6
