Replacing Shimano Shifters

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Replacing Shimano Shifters

I have a Specialized Allez road bike model year 1999. The bike is a 3x9 with shimano 105 components. I need to replace the shifters, and I want them to be shimano 105, uletgra, or dura-ace. I don't know what is and isn't compatible - I've been looking on ebay but I don't know what to look for to ensure compatibility except that they must be 3x9.

For example, I'm looking at these but I don't know if they will work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Shimano-Dura...item27bf870fab

I am also looking at these: https://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/bik/2664436298.html

My bike: https://www.bikepedia.com/QuickBike/B...llez&Type=bike

Thanks for the help!

according to https://sheldonbrown.com/dura-ace.html you should be ok. I've never had 7700 or your 105 so I am just going by the webpage.
