Can anyone ID this bracelet?
Every so often I see this bracelet on a Speedmaster. I think it would look great on my '57 Replica. Anyone know the name/model, and maybe a source? I can't imagine they're around NOS, but boy I'd love to find one.

kinda sorta
Yeah, it's Jubille-esque, but it's definitely Omega As I mentioned, I've seen it before on various Speedmasters.
A Jubillee has 3 rows of small links in the center, vs. 2 rows separated by a larger center link.

i had a 2 tone bracelet like that on a 565 cal seamaster
no pic i'm afraid and no watch anymore, but i think it was the same. it could be an aftermarket with original buckle of course, but whatever it is it looks pretty good on the 57 replica.

Just to clarify...
these pics are from the 'bay. I do not own the watch, and the watch pictured is not a '57 Replica. I have an email into the seller and will report back with the bracelet's ref# if I get a reply.
This is a '57 Replica...

I really just don't like people.
I emailed the seller, asking if they had any more of these bracelets (knowing full well they probably didn't), and if not, would they mind giving me the reference number off of the clasp so that I might search for one myself. They replied "NO we do not have a bracelet like this to sell, this band is really hard to find, since the watch is a very old model."
Love the NO in caps. No mention of the reference number, as if I didn't even ask.
Fine, I emailed back immediately, with thanks, and asked again about the reference number. No reply at all.

i would think in that...
i would think in that case that its an
aftermarket bracelet with original clasp attached. not a hard job to
do.

sellers lose the ability to speak or write english when asked a difficult
question :)

Mexican Omega Bracelet
I belive it's an Mexican Omega Bracelet used in Middle and South America Omega Watches.
In the Buckle is stamped HOLZER Y CIA.SA and HECHO MEXICO
I have an Speedmaster Mark II, Flightmaster C911 Yellow Hands and Speedmaster Professional Chocolate 145-022-69 ST with this Bracelet.
Best Regrads.

that is my opinion too
I have a 176.007 with exactly the same looking bracelet and it was in Bienne with the watch for servicing. They serviced the bracelet and did not say that it was aftermarket or something.
Mine is 22mm and says:
Hecho en Mexico, 82, MArcas REgs, Omega; Holzer Ycia .SA, acero inoxydable
Hope that helps
