    Any information you could share would be terrific.
    The clasp is clearly marked 1153/138 and the end-clips 155.
    However the last links before the end-clips are 22mm.
    Thanx for your help, Miki

    Apparently you flipped-flopped on this. Is it an 1159 or a franken? It can't be both. Someone break the tie, please.

    I never changed my mind about that one:
    I said it WAS a 1159... before swapping the clasp, so it's not a 1159.
    To me, a bracelet with a wrong clasp is a Franken...

    Are you saying that the bracelet and ends, not withstanding the clasp, was originally an Omega 1159.
    I'm not being critical, as I'm only trying to figure this out. Miki

    @uwsearch is correct in both statements. Excluding the clasp, the bct looks exactly like a 1159 that's, with the 22mm ends, usually equipped on the Speedmaster MkIV style cases. It also looks bent and worn out.

    The 1153/138 is of different style and usually for the Dynamics.

    The whole thing is certainly usable if you keep it, and surely worth something for parts.
