Brand new to this forum (and fairly new to this insane hobby), and looking for a little advice.
Although I was definitely punching out of my weight class on this one, I had to pull the trigger on a midsize bond I found at an estate sale. The only issue, however, is that it came on an aftermarket leather strap. Most definitely a proverbial "first world" problem, but I really want to put this one a metal bracelet. But even though the price point was right, I'm in deeper than I should be and just can't afford an OEM replacement bracelet from Omega.
Thus, my question is this: will I be turning this beautiful watch into a dreaded "Frankenstein" by buying an affordable, third-party metal bracelet?
