Anyone know of any decent BOR bracelets which would fit 19mm case?

There's a few on eBay like this but not sure what the quality is like

Currently have it on a brown leather strap which looks great but can be a bit of a pain to take off and on and prefer a single deployment style strap

There was also originally a 9k gold strap option which looks nice as there's no gap from the band to the lugs but not easily available and the gold plated generic mesh versions of this have a gap

People are reluctant to open links. It would help get the conversation going if you post a picture of your watch along with the bracelets etc you’re considering.

Are you looking for generic or Omega. The first one you posted has an omega logo on the clasp but it’s fake.
You’d need a 7 row beads of rice (eg ref 1037/1503 etc) with 19mm Endlinks. The Endlinks will be the issue. I’m not certain they made 19mm bor Endlinks in gold plate, you’d have to look.
The main thing is, whether Omega or generic, you need 19mm Endlinks.

Just looking for generic tbh as they are much cheaper and I'll wear it often thanks

I do actually already have the 555 gold end links but the original bracelet I have is quite battered

I don’t generally like generic stuff if there’s a reasonably priced genuine alternative and you don’t get much better value than a genuine 60’s Omega BoR. that said, if you already have the Endlinks, you just need to find a generic beads of rice that fits them.

I would assume there’s plenty on eBay?
Not in good condition for a reasonable price from what I can see?

What replacements have you tried or considered? Is there a reason you’re discounting the generic beads of rice on eBay?

The quality of the generic eBay ones might not be great.
Would prefer Amazon where you can easily return if they're not good
