    Hey all, quick question. I need another link or two for my 1499 Speedy bracelet. Was the 1498 the same thing more or less, is, would a 1498 link work? And any idea on what the best place to find one might be? Thanks!
    Jay

    With the way they have been gouging people, you may find going to an AD or OB will be cheaper...

    ADs can still source 1499s?

    The question was about extra links - yes extra links are still available from Omega for the 1499, so an AD or OB should be able to order them in, just like I can...

    I echo @Archer's sentiments in regards to Ofrei vs AD or OB. I purchased a good amount of items from Ofrei before they lost their Omega parts account and found the prices and availability to be competitive with local ADs or OBs, but since then the prices have been all over the map.
    As for the specific 1498 or 1499 links (they are interchangeable) purchasing directly from an OB was easy as pie and the least costly option by far. $22 while I was quoted $45+ from every other avenue. Granted, it was because they had one in stock at another close OB but it was still well below the other options and available for pickup within a week.
