Hi, I recently purchased a piepan Connie from Adam, and it arrived yesterday! As mentioned in the original thread, there's currently a gold-tone tension ring which I'll replace with the correct silver-toned one. I had initially thought about getting a Hirsch Duke strap in Golden Brown, mainly because they have a short strap (110/70mm) suitable for my slim 6.3" wrists. However, after looking at this similar watch on Omegaphilia, I'm now thinking if a beads-of-rice bracelet might be better. However, I'm not sure which is the right BOR bracelet! Or is there even a 'correct' bracelet, which Desmond's blog implies? If there's no 'standard' / 'correct' bracelet, what do you guys suggest as a suitable BOR bracelet? And where would you purchase one from a reliable seller? I've tried TimesOfPlenty on ebay, Ofrei but nothing looks quite like the one in the picture in Omegaphilia. Or should I just stick with a strap? Thanks!
Have just taken a 7 row BOR 1036 clasp etc., together with end pieces off my friends Seamaster, if you like to mail me I will give you more details. Brian
