I scored a heavily beat-up Speedmaster head at a garage sale. Case/crystal were really bad, and one of the pushers was missing. Movement has SN: 30592275. Case back says "145022-69 ST". From my searching, it's a Pre-Moon Speedmaster, Cal 861? The movement wound/ran, and kept good time, so I sent it in to Manhattan Time Services for a refurb. Looks like new-old-stock now, but need something to mount it on so I can wear it.
Seems like my best bet would be to get an Omega 1171 Bracelet for it, I think that's accurate for the watch/year? Quite pricey, though. Which should be expected for 50 year old parts.
I'm open to Bracelet or Strap ideas, would like something that looks "correct" for the watch. Maybe a 3rd party strap and an old stock buckle? Just get a nice Speedmaster-style strap/buckle and call it done???
Thanks in advance.
