To Jimnloz. Great respect, there are real Omega connoisseurs who honestly share their experience.
What I showed is readily available if you buy the book. It is however, only a minuscule part of the huge "data repository" you wish to find.

As per your initial requests,
i.e.: "all the authentic Omega Speedmaster bracelets from 1967 to 2005? According to ref. And other signs.".
This information is scattered through books, Omega catalogues, hundreds of jewellers brochures, internet pages and Omega collector memory banks.
Compile a single reference from that?
As @padders mentioned, this would be a monumental task, even for the highly experienced Omega collector should they even countenance it. The Labours of Hercules spring to mind (and pale into relative insignificance).

As to your comments directed at other members.

The initial questions you posed were answered in the best intent and I think language/communication differences may have contributed to some confusion.

There may be a language issue here but there is certainly an understanding issue. I'll try again. You don't need to buy a brand new bracelet. You need a link. Either buy one on eBay based on the bracelet number or contact the nearest boutique or Authorised Dealer and ask for one. I realise there are countries in the world where there is no Boutique or AD, maybe you are in Colombia or Myanmar or Bhutan perhaps, but I suspect you are just being a bit awkward and trying to place a badly worded WTB, which incidentally you are not entitled to do here.

Please forgive my lack of time, ignorance, but the important author of the book is not listed, who is the author of the book, although a great job is done. I would like to buy the whole book, paper version. What would be the possibilities?

That book is only available at authorized dealers and isn’t for sell. It is an internal catalog of straps and parts. Many shops now just look it up online and don’t even have the catalog. Some people have been given a copy when a new one comes out and you can sometimes find them for sale online, but as Padders has patiently explained, you don’t need the book or a new bracelet, you just need a link. Surely there must be a shop selling Omega watches near you somewhere that you can order it from. Where are you located?

Excuse me, Are you the only Omega paper authentic box dealers? I think real books should be unique, published by researchers, or published by Omega - and freely available?

the bracelet is 1562/850. I need to increase bracelet size by at least one size from 18 cm to 19 cm.

You don't need a new bracelet, just some links - they are part 114ST1560 and you can order them from a local dealer, boutique, or call an Omega service center and ask for the parts department.

Sorry,
The question is which information should be followed? Are they really good sources of information, printed books that you can ask and refer to?

Links should cost you about 35 Euro each. You only need one or two to extend the bracelet.

This must be a great author, I would like to buy the paper version, which bookstore sells it? Is this a textbook for the ages. Who is the author and where can I buy it? I would rather have the original book than an internet copy

This will tell you about the book.

The hard part will be finding a copy.
