    Could someone please tell me if this is an original bracelet:
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-OME...5156528?pt=US_Watch_Bands&hash=item2eca74eeb0Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    Another one with exactly the same, with "1037" clearly stamped on the clasp together with end pieces:

    My concern with the bracelet is that the clasp is not stamped "GOLD PLATED L 20 MICRONS AND STAINLESS STEEL" or "14K G.F. STAINLESS STEEL
    HINGE" or "PLAQUE OR L 20 MICRONS AND STAINLESS STEEL" as it should be. Also, the "OMEGA" and "1037" stamp on clasp looks crude. Would appreciate your thoughts. Many thanks.

    Ronnie

    looks OK to me, but I'm not an expert. personally, I prefer the 7 row to the 9 row, as the beads are rounder, compared to the flat top of these 9 row ones.

    I'm sceptical about the claim that these are 1964 versions. You can still get OEM beads of rice bracelets from otto frei:

    so that may be a safer bet.
