Up for grabs is an original Omega beads of rice bracelet for the 18mm lug width Seamasters and Constellations of the 50s and some of the 60s. Bracelet referece is 8220 with 11 endlinks, but all the references (1502, 3010, 1036 and 8220) are virtually interchangable.

This one is in unusually good condition, as most of them do show significant wear on the plating and stretch, which is absolutely minimal on this example. The endlinks were adjusted to a watch before but remain in good condition to be fitted to whatever watch you're intending them for. Clasp closes well, there are three removable links on one side, length is good for a ca. 19.5-20cm wrist. If in doubt, do reach out and I'll be happy to measure more precisely again. Let me know if there are any questions.



This is maximum stretch, unusually little for this kind of bracelet:

Plenty reviews available here, but either my username is too short to use the search function for that or I’m not handling the forum software eloquently enough, which is entirely possible. Anyway:

As this goes sometimes: An earlier sliding-clasp BoR and a 7-row example are sold, this 5-row example is still available.

I've had 5 people reach out with Seamaster De Villes needing bracelets: I'm afraid these need the later 7-rows, ref. 1503, 1037, 1068, 8270, endlinks 70 or 570. 😀
