Omega Bracelet Reference Numbers Guide
Each Omega bracelet has a reference number. This number helps identify the bracelet similar to a model number. Throughout the years, Omega has developed countless numbers of different metal bracelets for its watches.
In its constant pursuit of perfection, the brand has refined, improved, and upgraded its bracelets in order to ensure high quality, a better finish, and long-lasting durability.
Whilst many of the vintage Omega bracelets are well-designed and look great, it’s not always the long-lasting quality was there. Due to not using solid links and sturdy materials and parts, many of the Omega vintage bracelets tend to stretch severely over time. But for vintage watch enthusiasts, this isn’t necessarily important. Instead, what is important is finding the correct bracelet for the watch so that it matches the Omega bracelet reference number, and ideally the clasp production date as well. Being able to find the right bracelet for your Omega watch requires you to know the Omega bracelet reference number of the bracelet you are looking for.
In this article, we will share more information about Omega bracelet reference numbers, as well as list many reference numbers, including a large number of bracelets used for the Omega Speedmaster.
Omega bracelet reference numbers
The bracelet numbers are stamped on the back of the bracelet clasps. Omega bracelet numbers follow the format XXXX/XXX. The first four digits in the format refers to the body of the bracelet, and the last three refer to the end link. The end link numbers can be found on the end link. Unlike Omega’s reference numbers for watches, the bracelet numbers do not indicate what metal is used for the bracelet.
Omega Speedmaster bracelet reference numbers
Let’s look closer at all of the vintage Omega Speedmaster bracelet reference numbers.
Speedmaster bracelet reference 7077
The first Speedmaster bracelet is the reference 7077. Omega produced this bracelet up until 1961 when it was discontinued for the bracelets 7912/6 and the 7912/12.
This is a thin bracelet with flat links that sit in 3 rows, with 2 narrow links on the side and a wide middle link.
Speedmaster b bracelet reference 1039
The first bracelet for the Speedmaster professional has the reference 1039. Unsurprisingly, these bracelets are not very solid and those that still exist are very flimsy.
Speedmaster bracelet 1171
The Omega Speedmaster bracelet with reference 1171 was introduced together with the Speedmaster professional equipped with the caliber 861. The bracelet was in production up until about 1980.
Speedmaster bracelet ref 1039/516
The Omega Speedmaster bracelet reference 1039/516 was in production between the first quarter of 1966 and about the end of 1971 or early 1972, which means a production time of about 5 years.
Speedmaster bracelet ref 1540
Omega released the bracelet with reference 1540 in 1980 for the Speedmaster professional. This bracelet is very similar to the 1039, but the links are slightly more rounded on this bracelet.
Speedmaster 1499 bracelet
The bracelet ref 1499 was in production for a short period of time.
This was then discontinued for 1479.
Speedmaster 1479 bracelet
This bracelet was in production until about 1955/1956. It has polished links at the ends.
Speedmaster 1498 bracelet
The 1498 has a 20mm end link width and a clasp width of 18mm. It has a double push-button at the clasp

Thank you. But how do I find the bracelet if there is no code stamped on the clasp. There is only #306 on the end connectors to the pin. The Watch is Omega Electronic f300Hz Geneve Chronograph (with cal. 1260) gold plated Minse. There also is 9-74 stamped near hinge pin of the non-plated hidden parts of the clasp. How to find the adjusting links for that?
Thank you.
Hello,
Due to the nature of the Omega Electronic, availability of the bracelet is not the best. You can search for Omega Electronic F300Hz chronograph bracelet on, for example, ebay.
Kind regard,

I have an Omega speedmaster professional I have owned from new. My clasp ID # is 1998/849.
The part of the clasp which is inscribed is badly scratched. I would like to replace the clasp only. Can the correct clasp still be attained?
Hello,
Yes, it is possible to find a replacement clasp.
We would advise you to first turn to an official Omega retailer to begin with and they may be able to order it, or even have it in stock. Otherwise, you can look at sites like ebay or Chrono24.
