Hi Guys,

I have a Speedmaster Professional made in 2018. I love the watch, but am not crazy about the solid end link bracelet.

Is there a more traditional bracelet that would drop right in? And if so, can you give me a model number?

Thanks,
DeWayne

1171 with 633 end links is a good option.

Guys, would an Omega 1171 with a label marked "020ST1171633" and a date code on the label (I guess it's the date) of "18.11" be a suitable replacement for the current Speedmaster Pro bracelet? The inside of the clasp reads: "Stainless Steel 1171" as well as a "32" in a circle and a triangle Omega logo.

I have found one, with end links, in original packaging for around $550. Good buy for that price or no?

Thanks,
DeWayne

You can order them from Omega for cheaper.

A lot cheaper? Because it's easier said than done, I'm afraid. I'm in Saudi Arabia, and service here is - questionable - on a good day.

Does anyone know what one of these costs (roughly) when ordered through an Omega Boutique in the States? Omega here tells me cost is around $453.

Looks like I’ll be hitting up an Omega Boutique vs the crazy markups online.

Mine was about 400US.

the uncle seiko options are also great.

145.022-76 on new production 1171/633.

note it’s a good idea to have a professional install the endlinks the first time. They needs a little adjustment. I just did mine via my Boutique. I’d not use an authorized dealer.
