    Hi guys,

    I have attached an album of pictures of my bracelet currently on my omega seamaster silver sparkle.

    https://imgur.com/a/eQmW8JF

    The #48 stamped end links seem to be a bit shy of 19mm, one moves more than the other but both are stamped 48, i cannot seem to find any for sale or any info on them, this is the only bracelet I've seen on this kind of case , is it a speedmaster style bracelet? I feel like i normally see rice bead or similar on this watch if not leather.

    So my question here is, what end links do fit the 166.032 case perfectly? If i were to get rid of these end links, could anyone let me know what they would value them at and what I could try find to replace them, or is it not that simple.

    The clasp is stamped 12 and 129 on the other side.

    I really like this combo but something is nagging me about the end links moving a bit, I'm waiting for a suede strap to come but its going for service anyway. Just wanted to figure out what the real stainless options are for this case.

    Thanks to all in advance and have a great day. Still new to these watches and not trying to revive ancient zombie threads.

    I am not familiar with that bracelet, but there are a couple of other Omega bracelets that fit the 166.032. I have the 1069/524, the 1381/772 and had the 1098/540 and all three fit your 166.032; below pictures of them on my 166.032:

    awesome! the 524 ends look like they fit the cast the best there but that 1381 looks awesome too.

    These 48 stamped ones do fit the shape of case and lugs well but again one just seems a little short and i can't figure out why. I can't even find any info on an omega end link of that number.

    You can try google images of the reference and look for well fitted bracelets and check the website for pictures of the back of the end links

    would you have any advice as to if my current bracelet and 48 end links are worth anything? i would like to find an original 1098/540 but looking at prices i would need to sell this one for something or i would in no way be able to afford it. Thank you whether you can help or not just figured i would ask.

    Your current bracelet appears to be an1175. In my opinion that bracelet is more valuable than the 1098. You can try selling that on ebay and with the money, you should get the bracelet and end links you need.
