526 end link sourcing

hswazir · Feb 16, 2025

Hello! Any idea where I could look for a single or pair of 526 end links? I was able to source the 1098 bracelet and end links but one of them is bent in a way that it doesn’t sit flush with the watch (omega cosmic 166.022)
Two eBay links I found were more expensive than the bracelet itself, and I couldn’t find it on the Otto frei website.

Thank you!

Very hard to find on their own. I’d try and concentrate on reshaping the links you have as you may well have to pay a significant sum to find some

I tried the best I could with needle nose pliers but short of having jewelers tools I can’t manipulate it to lift it up enough. I tried the local jewelers but they’re also the omega people and wanted to send it to their watchmaker (the guy still has my oris for servicing for 4 months now).
I called Ofrei yesterday but they dont carry this

Have you tried firing an email off to Omega Customer Service?

I wanted a period correct bracelet for my Seamaster120 166.027 (1968) and they sold me the 020ST1125560 bracelet with End Links which was designed for case.

At the same time I was also able to get a couple of 115ST1575 half links for my Railmaster 36mm.
