I’ve recently picked up a vintage Omega. It needs a little work and one of the things that needs fixing is the bracelet to clasp join, at some point the last link must have been damaged or lost.

This is the previous owners solution to the problem.

Not ideal.

The bracelet links only have a hole on one side for resizing so I can’t put a spring bar all the way through the last link.

This is the part that is missing.

Clasp end link source or ideas

Hi folks!

Sifu Straps introduced a new patented design nylon strap earlier this year and I’ve used them for 2+ months now non-stop. As a watch enthusiast first and foremost, I want to spread the word of these awesome straps because they have re-ignited my love for nato/nylon straps because of the thinner look and better feeling on the wrist.

It’s tricky to try and post about things that you are excited about as a watch Youtuber when everything can be interpreted as an ad. I don’t want this…

New and improved nylon strap? – Sifu Straps

I recently purchased this Zenith de Luca. I’m not a huge bracelet guy so I want to pick up a leather strap instead.

The automatic go-to choice for a leather strap would be black with white stitching, but I was thinking maybe something in brown or tan.

Thoughts?

Help Me Chose a Stap for my Zenith

i bought a bracelet that i think works well with my Orient Star – with the idea to modify it by removing enough metal from each side of the end links and the first attached link to fit it on the 21mm width of the watch lugs.

this particular bracelet doesn’t come in a 21mm variant – it’s either 20mm or 22mm.

i have a tool dressing stone that i thought about using to do this … slowly remove about 1.1 to 1.2 mm (about .55 to .60mm per side).

sides of bracelet are high polish and the…

thinking about making a 22mm bracelet into a 21mm bracelet … advice, tips ?

These are probably the nicest straps I’ve ever used. The construction and hand-stitching is impeccable. Out of the box, the leather is fairly stiff, esp compared to my Delugs bespoke straps, but I actually prefer this. In my experience, stiffer straps wear less in the long run and better conform to your individual wrist over time.

The most incredible thing about these straps…

I have a 2 piece Nato strap but this is the first traditional nato strap I’ve owned. It came with this Tiger Concept Big Crown watch. It was something of a learning curve to figure out how to wear it but I think it looks good now.
