Hello,

I recently picked up this watch. (sorry for the crappy phone picture) I'm trying to decide what to do for a strap or bracelet.

Recommendation?

Also can anyone tell me the correct bracelet that it might have originally come with?

Thank you!

Trey

 

The original is 1170/653 but hard to find...
or replacement 1162/172 if you don't mind about having straight endlinks...
or 1247/237 mesh

 

Thank you for the quick reply!

It came with a 1170/653 on it however it is badly stretched and worn.

 

1170 often show up on Ebay.
Cheers

 

usually

too

 

I have the 653 end pieces and they are actually in decent shape.

Any guidance on what an 1170 in good condition should go for?

Below 100 till last year, a lot higher now.

Never dealt with this seller, but here you go...

 

Thank you for the lead! I've never seen one of these in good condition, so I don't really know what is 'stretch' and what normal or proper.

I also ran across this one. Does it look tighter? It's more money...

There's still 9 days on that auction, IIRC. Plenty of time to rise to that price. Plus it's relatively 'local'. Make him an offer...

 

it's very short... many links removed the other one would be far better.
