Hi I stumbled over a 1171 and was wondering which production period this belongs to. The clasp has 1171 engraved but no Omega trapezoid logo. Is this braclet correct for a 70ies speedy? Here are the pics: Thanks for your opinion!
This 1171/633 service bracelet, with trapezoid logo, was fitted to my 1960's Speedmaster in the early 1970's. @OWa Have you checked Mstanga's bracelet chart? https://omegaforums.net/threads/vintage-speedmaster-bracelet-chart.29051/
Does it have the screw in links or the push pins? I think the 1171 with screw in links is the earliest one and then later changed to wider clasp and push in pins?
I’m not sure on exact dates, but as a -76 may well have been sold in ‘77 or possibly ‘78, Id say it could well be correct.
The -76 came with a trapezoidal logo, and I'm pretty sure the -78 did as well. It was right around '80 that the switch to the square logo was made. Regardless, it's not too off date wise.
This is interesting. I bought my '76 Speedmaster in 1998 and it came on 1175 bracelet with a raised Omega logo. Were the 1171 and 1175 fitted in the same time period or is my bracelet possibly a replacement?. Thanks, Tony
Thanks for all your comments. After those and some comparison pics from other 76 Speedmasters, I decided to look for a trapezoid version of the braclet. The braclet I posted is already gone. I will post an update as soon as I find the right braclet. Thanks for your support
