Good Afternoon,

I need to replace the bracelet on this watch and looking for suggestions as to what you think would look best as I am not the best at pairing a good combo...all suggestions welcome and not too concerned about cost...

Thanks in advance.

For leather, a dark brown or black calf strap. Lots of options out there at <$100. There are several threads on strap suppliers in the stickies.

If you want a bracelet, look for an Omega Beads of Rice bracelet — just do your homework and make sure you are buying the real deal and not a fake. A real one will set you back a few hundred dollars, but you can also find generic ones for substantially cheaper to see if you like the look first. Just look on EBay.

Personally, I’d put it on the BoR. Nice watch, BTW. I don’t know enough about these to say if that’s an original dial or not, but it looks great to me!

It already looks awesome on the straight end BOR you have now. If it needs replacement i suggest you look at privateeyes bracelets out in japan. Very good quality.

I cant adjust the length of it though and it its slightly loose. Do you know if there is a way of removing a link in the BOR bracelet?

The bracelet that’s on the watch looks really good.
Yes there is a way to shorten a BOR bracelet, I’d give it to a watchmaker to minimize risks of damage- that’s what I did with one of mine.

Highly recommend Aaron bespoke straps, he makes the best looking and most comfortable straps I’ve tried. Custom orders only to ensure the size is perfect too, which I look for as my wrist size is below average.
