The left ones look similar to the ones oddboy posted but double notch. However the notches seems modified by hand/file.
Thanks for your pics !! I guess I will go for these endlinks..I hope I wont regrete this purchase.
The seller claimed they were attached on a transitional 7912 bracelet...
I think they are worth it..we will see how it's going to be ..I will receive them at the end of December; I will keep you updated
Thanks for all your help

Sorry, due to the time zone difference impossible to get mine back in time. I didn't notice you needed the pics right away, thanks to those who could take over and help 👍

I would appreciate if some of the single notch owners share their opinion as well if possible
I have a pair that came along with my 2998-2 so presumably fairly early. I don't have detailed photos and tonight has not been a good night. If you still need more examples in the morning (PST) I can do better. Here's the only shot I have at the moment.

No problem! I got some additional pics of the endlinks and I am pretty sure they are genuine

Just to add some more confusion to this thread. This was posted this morning on Ebay. The notch looks different and the end piece looks like it has age, as the edges are softer. OP's pics show sharper edges. Newer or are they NOS?

If you don't mind being asked, what is the asking price of the ends?.


All I can say is that the price was very fair..

I do not think these are original, unfortunately.

Op “6” and ridge:


Other with the correct 6 and thinner ridge




And the line on top looks to me a bit wider than normal.
Op endlink


other that looks correct

Indeed there are too many fakes out there...as most collectors here I learned my lesson in the past as well..so I am not judging If they are correct or not; I even don’t have this particular pair anymore

but one question from my side @Patrik83 : is the no6 endlink you are showing for comparison a single notch version ?
Because I think you are showing a double notch Endlink here

Comparing a double notch stamp and ridge with a single notch version is not a valid comparison.
They look different indeed...

Years ago I bought this NOS 7077 with no6 endlinks - I am pretty sure that’s the way correct single notch have to look like; but that’s just my opinion.

Well, these look correct 👍

The images that I used are from other pictures posted in the same thread.

I have seen two different single notch that to me looks correct but are slightly different placed next to each other.
The one you have above is: "thin/single notch/ridges/no flang" (does not connect with the back case)
the other one that I have seen is the: "fat/single notch/no ridges/flang (connects with the back case)

The other "fat" one (that connects with the back case):
From Bukowskis (https://www.bukowskis.com/en/auctions/603/45-omega-speedmaster-chronograph-wristwatch-39-mm):


Posted by @Varnado (used gone?):


However, what is the time difference between the thin and the fat one, no clue.
