·This is an odd query, I know—it’s not a sales post. My proposal only applies to US members who’ve been here for at least a couple years and who have, let’s say, over 250 posts.
Here’s the deal: I’m interested in picking up a 1574/898 bracelet that I can fit to my 3rd gen SMPro ceramic diver. My understanding is that the oyster style, tapered, concealed clasp bracelets from the 39mm ATs will fit, and I love those bracelets. I also know some people don’t.
I’m not interested in paying $600 for a “new” one on eBay. To my mind, these bracelets are worth around $350.
What I’m wondering is if I might buy a 39mm AT off, say, Chrono24–there are a bunch of quartz ones, for example, from Japan, for around $1300 shipped. I’d keep the bracelet, and then pass the watch along, head-only, for $900.
All the details can be negotiated (quartz or auto; dial color, etc). I’d basically let you pick the watch. And we could sort how the process would work—whether I’d make the purchase and then you’d buy from me or vice versa. I’m flexible.
Basically, wondering if there’s some strap-loving person out there looking for an AT! (AT on an aftermarket leather strap was my first modern Omega and it was killer!)
