Hello everyone,

I’m looking for a replacement bracelet for my 145.022-76. My original bracelet is starting to show some stretch, and I’d like to retire it from daily wear to preserve its condition.

I’ve found the bracelet pictured below for €370. I suspect it is a modern service replacement, but I’d appreciate your expertise on:

1. Authenticity: Does this look genuine?
2. Fitment: Will this correctly fit the 145.022-76 case?
3. Value: Is €370 a fair price for this specific version?

Alternatively, would I be better off buying a brand-new service bracelet directly from an Omega Boutique? I'm not sure what the current MSRP is for those compared to this deal.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!
Best,
Matt

Modern-ish service bracelet.
Should fit but may require minor adjustment.

How do you spot a service bracelet OF members? Something I’d like to learn. Is it to do with the code on the clasp?

It depends on the service bracelet but from what I could tell, there are three main give aways:

1. The laser engraved reference number and logo. (Original bracelets have this pressed into the clasp)

2. The extra notches cut into the endlinks

3. The way the inner part of the clasp tapers ever so slightly.
