    Anybody know this one? Is 1211 an Omega bracelet number? I cannot find anything. It has 18mm end links.

    Gives me very fake vibes. Would a bracelet be “antimagnetic”? And the only “1211” bracelet I’ve seen advertised looks nothing at all like this.

    I would assume fake unless one of our bracelet gurus says otherwise.

    More pics from the clasp and the end links would be helpful. To me it‘s new and my guts say fake or a mixture of original and fake parts.

    kind regards Max

    I am no expert on Omega bracelets but I also don't recall seeing the word antimagnetic on a bracelet clasp before.

    If I remember when I’m back at my computer I’ll post the three “1211” omega bracelets I pulled up on a quick search this morning, all of which were the same as one another and vastly different from this. Would omega use the same ref # for two different bracelets? If not, something is amiss, but perhaps @X350 XJR is suggesting that his search lends probability to the op?

    Thanks X350 XJR - does the antimagnetic indicate some sort of non-ferrous, nickel-based, alloy

    And I’ve just solved the mystery—I think. A little further poking around would suggest that 1211 is the ref for the clasp, not the bracelet.

    So, OP, it may well be the case that we cannot authenticate your bracelet without additional pictures. The clasp would appear to be (or closely resemble) a version of the genuine article; presumably, that’s a good sign. Does the bracelet include any other reference numbers?

    As ever, I will humbly stand corrected if someone knows better.

    Unfortunately I took too much time to investigate. Gone.

    "The watch is presented on a genuine period Omega Milanese bracelet which is correct 19 mm, this is the swiss version of the British DS&S bands which were available as factory options for these Speedmasters and compliments the watch perfectly."

    No i own the same bracelet but i can´t find any further informations.

    I bought the bracelet with poor pictures from the seller and i thought i could use some parts for my allready owned milaniase bracelet from my Omega Cosmic 166.022 but this bracelet is totaly different.

    Here are some pictures for comparison

    The end links for the Cosmic are removable

    Some ideas or should we finally push the bracelet into the FAKE section !?
