Seiko 5M85-OABO Kinetic Watch Band Links wanted Please

Hi to all of the Seiko fans, I have owned Seiko watches most of my adult life after buying a Seiko Deep Sea Divers Watch in 1975 I used as my daily wear until the movement was (I was told by the watch shop unfortunately I believed them) that it was irreparable and found someone to buy it for a real pittance compared to what I now know as the real value, lesson learned but I am better educated now and play a bit with low end watches of the Marque.

I bought this one recently to wear but the band is a bit too small, I did ask the seller if he had spare links but he said No, I did see that I can probably get a new watch band but I would like to see if I can obtain original old links before I move in this direction, would anyone have some links to sell me so I can wear it

Rather odd that the previous owner adjusted the band to its smallest setting on the deployment clasp and removed links, I have to wonder why he didn't just adjust the band small on the clasp and remove a minimum of links, I would probably have been able to wear it, any way, you cant put brains in statues, does anyone have spare links to sell, a suitable watch band, a link to where I can buy either at a reasonable price or a part number so I can search knowing what I find will fit my original band? any help appreciated.

Just saw this post, a little late to reply, in fact almost a year to the day.

Did you find a strap or links?

I bought a new (old stock) one of these great watches about 2 years ago but unfortunately it came on a Rubber ( Silicone) strap as my variant was sold with but there is also another sale variant that comes on the steel strap and so I was able to track down the Seiko part number and from there find a retailer in Holland who advertises it for sale ( I am in New Zealand) so here are the sales details for the OEM SS bracelet.



Wear yours in good health!
Here is mine.
