Does anyone have i formation on the technical differences between a 1566/692 & 1567/693?

Just arrived is my BNOS AT bumblebee but with a leather strap. On the hunt for a bracelet. After much research it appears that the 1567/693 is the SS bracelet option that came with the watch.
I have sourced a 1566/692 which looks identical, new and reasonably priced but before I pull the trigger it's prudent to to ask the community if anyone has any knowledge knowing the differences over these 2 products. Thank you

The 1566/692 will not fit that watch. The 1566/692 originally came on the 39.5mm Aqua Terra 8500, which is known to have a 19mm lug width.

Your watch is ref 231.10.42.21.01.002, which means it's on the 41.5mm case that has a 20mm lug width. 1567/693 is the only correct bracelet option for that watch, despite the bracelets looking the same.

Sure did. An absolute bargain, brand new factory labels. Was slightly hesitant given the price so got evidence of timing performance etc and of course the escrow service as a backup so a total no brainier.
Went halfway round the world to my doorstep in less time than it takes to receive a local posted letter.

I very much appreciate your input. Thank you.. saved me a lot of grief there. Shame as sourcing a decent condition metal bracelet for this watch is turning into a real pain.

Yeah, those are pretty uncommon to find floating on the used market. Only one I can source is just under $700, so your cheapest option would probably be just ordering a new one direct from an Omega Boutique.

Oh. So some of those numbers do mean things. That's good to know 😕
