    I'm not aware of Speedmasters of that era coming on anything but a bracelet.

    Corfam appears to have been popular in Israel in 1977! My extract is from just a few months earlier.
    So I'm also looking for the answer to this question - I bought a great Corfam replica strap from Abel Court at Heuertime, and would love to get a period correct buckle. Ideas, buckle savants? 15629972132413829472062418568784.jpg

    Here’s an example of a NOS corfam strap from -69 on a Omega Bullhead.

    Fancy 1970s name for Fake leather.
    Was often on tool/sport watches that were marketed as more waterproof
