·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

Great score.
If you ever consider selling, I am based in Sydney..

I have some doubts on the links - for me it looks like a rebuilt 7912.
The non stretch links should be folded and not plain as shown on your picture - same difference as for the 7836 vs. 78360 Rolex bracelets.

Nope. For the 7912, plain link backs until 1963, then folded over.

·From the top to the bottom:
- The oldest (11) 1171 clasp, 633 engraved endlinks and very rare oldest buckle cover (29x15mm)
1. ...many thanks for the time that you spent for this great informative posting 👍👍
2. ...may i ask....the first and oldest model of 1171 bracelet with this special buckle cover, could this be suitable for a 145.022.-68 Transitional speedmaster or did they always come with a 1039 bracelet ?

·Are there multiple versions of the 1098? Have seen some with model stamped on the clasp while others don’t

·Great compilation. I especially like the end link cut out dimensions as I am always pulling out bracelets and measuring them when I come across a pair of unknown numbered ends for sale online and am wondering if they will fit anything I have. Does anyone have any idea how rare 506 ends are and hence their value. Unfortunately I think I sold a 1035 with a pair for a rather good price a year ago. But I did find a box of bracelet parts at an estate sale I had passed up earlier in the day cuz I felt that unless I was in first wave there would be nothing for me. I bought a box with a parts Zodiac bracelet and a number 16 end for cheap. When I got home it had a pair of 6s, 16s and 506s which I never knew existed. That will never happen again. To this day I wonder where the corresponding bracelets are and more importantly their watches!!! Person managing the estate sale said that there had been no Omega watches earlier so I did not feel as I missed them. I also feel I had to be the only one in my area who would have recognized those pieces and wonder if they would have been trashed if not sold.
