I would kill for the end links on that 1040 bracelet!

Hi, they are available at Omega, Cousins etc. I got mine at a Omega AD store.

Really? I heard that the modern ones don鈥檛 fit the watch exactly - did you have any problems?

I have this one, which I bought a long time ago. And kept because I think it麓s a pretty good looking watch in all its discreteness

Bracelet, which I believe is original to the watch, is 1167 with 515 ends

The bezel appears to be white gold

Very hard to capture the structured dial, but it麓s gorgeous IRL

a little newer than the others I think but mine says hello. I find that it wears really well. Gold-capped 1973 168.0056 with calibre 1011 movement.

I rescued my far from perfect C shape on 'the bay' about a year ago by making an offer.
The watch looks like it was probably a daily wearer for someone.
The dial has a little spotting. Lume is missing from most of the markers. I suspect this has caused some of the minute track to be removed when it has been cleaned off during a service. The case is really sharp and has loads of service marks inside the case back. I had it serviced straight away and it runs like a dream.
A rescued example now in a good home which I really enjoy wearing regularly without fear of the odd scratch, comfortable too.
