I went ahead a just ordered the bracelet from the OB. Price is $790 plus tax
Look forward to seeing it when you have it fitted!
Suppose that by now you have the Snoopy and the bracelet; did you ended up using the 57 ends or US / Forstner ?
Am looking to buy the same bracelet for my black 3861

FWIW, the only clasp I’ve found which is a plug-and-play fit to the Forstner flat link is the 1162 (Speedy Mark II, I think).
Yes, without the two-button clasp, you can easily fit most clasp covers of appropriate size.
This is actually the entire clasp, not just the cover. But I agree, there are probably a number of covers that would fit.
Does anyone knows if the Speedmaster 57 clasp can be retrofitted on the 50th anniversary by itself or if something else needs to be replaced (recall that on the Chronoscope clasp retrofit on the 3861 bracelet an additional part was needed for it to fit properly.
It only works if you transfer it from the bracelet, ordering only the clasp won't because the connecting link is not included as I've been told by @watchstick_81 on a local forum.
I was under the impression you could order the proper end link as well?

The part marked in yellow below is the one that cannot be ordered? That does not makes sense as it’s a wearable part. You can order those clasp end links in other Omega bracelets (have done it for the adjustable clasp retrofit on Seamaster’s, Speedmasters and a Planet Oceans).
I am fairly certain that you can order it, I swear I remember reading somewhere that someone actually did this and made the clasp adjustable. May have been on TRF... maybe if Archer sees this he can chime in with part numbers.
Good idea @ErichPryde 😀
@Archer :
Can you help out in providing the part number highlighted in yellow below (clasp connecting link)? The bracelet is the one from the Speedmaster 57. The bracelet end links are labeled STZ015952; the clasp model is 117STZ015404. We are trying to find out the part number and if it can be ordered from Omega to retrofit the clasp with push button into the 50th anniversary bracelet reference 020STZ011626.
Thanks!
