Octalink Decal
The Dura Ace 7700 crankset was made with at least three marking configurations: The 25th Anniversary version with white lettering and gold "25," and two "standard" versions, both with black lettering. However, one of these versions also featured the "Octalink" logo on one of the spider arms.
This Octalink decal has been pretty much unobtanium, until I stumbled across this eBay listing: 7700 Octalink Crank Decals. I haven't been able to locate another listing, but I imagine that more will come.
I'm a sucker for decals and lettering, so I had to grab this. I'm not sure if the Octalink version came out first or later on, or why the decal was discontinued, or used only in later production. But anyway, I should have it in a few days.
If anyone wants the two black Dura Ace decals, drop me a PM with your address and I'll drop them in the mail when they arrive, no charge.

Maybe I'm missing it, but none of those auctions feature an Octalink decal.
