All the info you need is on that chart.

I would just add that most bracelets were added at the point of sale so looking at the production date of your watch, you should be looking at 66 sale date.

The S105.003-64 Marked on my watch however omega has confirmed September 14th 1965 production date the watch was originally purchased December 1965 by the previous owner. Thank you for your patience as I'm trying to get the watch the correct bracelet as it was replaced by omega in a service with a 1171/1 633end bracelet

That’s usual. The caseback marking usually predates the sale date by a year or two.

should be a 7912 marked 65. You may find a problem with the endlinks, the n.6 are as expensive as the whole bracelet.

What do you gents think is an acceptable time frame between movement date ad bracelet clasp date?

A quarter or 2 maybe is normal, ie a -65 Ed White watch may have been made in mid 1966 and sold later that year so 4/66 or 1/67 wouldn't be too weird. Of course the bracelet might have sat on the shelf too so could be older than the watch!

I would like to thank you all for your replys and look forward to the hunt for the bracelet not so the cost maybe.
