the first one has no springs and no backcover so quite useless, i also got three of these The second one is from a 7912 and i honestly dont know if they have the same size as the ones for a 1039, does anybody else knows?
You might be better off having the bracelet restored by Omega. These links have been known to change hands in the UK for £250 per pair and STS charge £500 to £600 for a full refurb with new springs - who's to say that other springs are not about to break?
As far as I know they are the same. The other, non sprung links, on the earlier bracelets are made from the more desirable solid steel, compared to folded steel on the later references. I´m not sure exactly when the change takes place though, but it´s also something to look out for.
There is also the shape of the spring. I have seen single curve springs as well as these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OMEGA-SPE...es_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item3f342bff42Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network
You can easily avoid being insulted by naming a price. Of course, you won't want to set it so high as to be insulting to the buyer.
Sorry, I didn't mean to cause offense, should have used a smiley. just make an offer on what you think you want to pay.
