    Why undated? If the date matches the year of production (usually the bracelet date comes 1 year after production) then a dated 7077 would be fine - no?

    Could be they were not stamping date/quarter on these/this early. But happy to be enlightened on that.
    Best,

    I'd need to double check but I think I have '57 and '59 dated 7077's. 2915-1 were 'produced' up to 1959 according to extracts of Omegas archive.

    Gino, what are your thoughts on this undated 1035 (note, the ref. is there):

    From what I know Omega starts to engrave date code on 1959 (IMHO) . Have ever seen a 7077 dated '57 or '58 ? If you have one to show I'll be happy to learn something new :)

    I have two thoughts on this undate 1035 : a lack of factory or a service bracelet

    There are three mark of 7077 (IMHO) :

    early 7077 no date code ('57, '58) as above

    std 7077 with date code '59, '60
    [​IMG]

    transitional 7077 with date code '61,
    [​IMG]
    where the elastic links pass from the double to the single but not removable

    Great post, interesting to see the very slight variations.
    Out of interest I also have a 1 58 but on my gold 7077 :cool:

    :cool: ^^^^^^
    A lot more work went into the Omega symbol on the gold clasp.


    Wish I'd known that 'single' expandable links are ok on a 7077 a couple of weeks ago.
    There was a complete bracelet up for sale and I recognised the 7077 clasp but thought it must be a 'put together' bracelet.

    Price was almost right that I should have picked it up for the clasp alone anyway :unsure:
    Can't even find it as a completed listing now :(

    Any more information on the "not removable" part would be greatly appreciated.

    Gino,
    Where does this type of clasp fit into your three marks? I believe this is also classed as a 7077?

    I have just sold my 7077 with single fixed sprung links. Dated 1961.

    You're quick Michael :cool:
    I was just coming back to edit my post to say that the first I heard of it was your sale earlier this week and then Gino's post above.

    Thanks for the pictures. I can now see how they differ from the 7912/1506/1039 links. :thumbsup:

    I need to talk to you about some springs. Just got some ongoing car issues at the moment (been at the mechanics over three weeks now :confused: ) so having to keep an eye on my pennies.

    I can trade you some springs for your car if you like :) What is it? Ferrari, Porsche, Lambo? if it is a Bugatti veyron I can trade a full set of springs to help you out and take that old thing off your hands.
    Seriously, drop me a PM when you are ready, I am always ready to budge on price.
    Cheers Mick.

    :D
    Not a fan of giving details of my car on an open forum that contains details of my most expensive possessions :cautious:
    I will say that your expectations are maybe a tad on the high side :p

    Back to the 7077's.
    Who would be our go to guy for repairing this poor attempt at getting to the springs?
    SAM_4097.JPG
    SAM_4098.JPG

    Not done by me, I might add.
    (date stamped 2, 60 - so fits in with Gino's list above)

    Good news is that tucked safely behind that clasp are another two double links :thumbsup:
    SAM_4099.JPG

    So three one end and two the other. My limited knowledge leads me to believe that's a full set.

    The other two definitely need some springs
    SAM_4100.JPG

    Would it be best to replace all of them at the same time?
    The unfortunate thing is I don't have a correct watch to put it on.
    Yet :cool:
    or endlinks ::facepalm2::


    Have these ever been faked? Think I may have just re-found that Mark 3 ::jumpy::
