Hi
Thanks for the information
The watch and bracelet were bought together at a deceased estates sale in South Australia a few years ago. $160AUD plus the auction fee. Less than $200AUD total. Sounds like I have a bargain

A nice looking seamaster and a rare bracelet at that price?! Wow! Great pick up!
Yep.
In fact part of the answer (for the 1184) is in this very thread.
Rarity doesn't always equal value. The early 7077 you posted is valuable as it's correct for valuable watches from the late 50's-early 60's.
The 1184 is genuine but it's likely correct for much less valuable and desirable references from the early-mid 70's. Unless you have a reference that it fits, there is no point wasting time ad effort sourcing end links if you aren't going to use it.
I have a vintage Railmaster that came on a near mint, flat link bracelet with single notch #6 end links. However, there is no model number. I've since found numerous other similar examples, including three in this thread. They all have several things in common:
1) The links and outer buckle are identical to those of the presumed model
2) They are date stamped
3) The OMEGA and STAINLESS STEEL stamps appear legit
4) There is no model number stamped.
It is possible these are all "put-togethers", but I think that is unlikely. I've shared this info with UWSEARCH, and he agrees.
I would like to know if other OF members own, or are aware of similar bracelets. And thoughts from the experts: did these come from Omega this way?
