i've heard a bit already.
Scott kindly pointed me in the direction of a
basically NOS original bracelet for the speedy/sm300 the other day, but it was
far too rich for me. even a rough one from Oz is going for more than i'm
prepared to spend especially as all my sm300's and speedy's are on decent
straps.

Bracelet for Seamaster 300 165024
Hi All, Wanted to see if someone knows what the correct bracelet(s) is for a 1968 Seamaster 300 ref 165024? Movement number 26.8 mill. Thanks for the help! Scott
At least three types
Hi I think the most correct would be a 1039, with 516 endlinks. Another one sometime seen is the 1506 with 506 endlinks. And the 1171 with 633 endlinks exists both as originally fitted, and as a current replacement. The modern one is recognisable because ...
the 1506 was used on the Speedmaster & Seamaster 300

Thanks guys and one last question.
Would a SM 300 with a 26.8 mil serial number have stick hands on both hour and minute. It is my understanding that the earlier 64 - 65 models had the stick hands but the later 60's models came with the sword hour hand? Any info would be greatly appreciate...
Scott, the true answer to this question is 'who knows??'
there are so many different variants of dial and hands that there is no real definitive answer. i've studied the sm300 at great length, own 3 and i dont know the answer i'm afraid. i've recently had one of mine refurbished with new parts and the only hand...
Candy for the eyes...

why thankyou young man. your...
why thankyou young man. your comments are greatly appreciated. i may put one on tomorrow in honour of your comments. last night i changed to a 64 speedy and 64 Seamaster De Ville(yes, 2 watches. thats very sad). perhaps tomorrow a 64 SM300 and something A...
Most definitely genuine, Graham . . .
. . . and while I don't want to give the story away until Scott is ready to tell it, it is a very special SM. Fortunately for him, it's not a '64 ;-) . . .
