Reasonably priced bracelet for 198.003?

Dug · May 25, 2025

Have tried a couple of straps for my f300, but just can't get on with them, probably down to my boney wrist, so am looking for a steel bracelet.
Can't run to a 1125/617, saving for a service on my old seamaster😬, so wondering if anyone would know of any reasonably priced non-omega alternative/s?
My vernier measures the lug width at 18.7mm, but of course it's the curved end links that are the problem.
Any advice would be much appreciated....many thanks.

There’s plenty of 19mm generic beads of rice bracelets on eBay, Cousins etc. I’d give one of this a go as the case shape is fairly standard so it should be fairly straightforward to get a reasonable fit.

Thanks David. Must admit I presumed that it would be more complicated. Rather than take a stab at a generic from ebay, I'll probably go for one of the Seiko ones advertised, purely on the basis that it's a brand name and possibly of higher quality. Pays yer money and takes yer chance!
