Show us your vintage watch bracelets!

Us vintage collectors are often also the people with a weak spot for nice vintage watch bracelets. I am a very big fan, especially of quirky 1950s examples - often unbranded. Show ‘em here, I’m very curious of what’s in the OF vaults 😜

I’ll start with two more common (yet very desireable) micro-adjusters from Longines and Omega. Very similar bracelets.

All three clasp styles of ‘50s Omega beads of rice bracelets (middle like yours above)..

A few Longines Nautilus bracelets (middle like yours above)..

A unique Conquest bracelet + a Nautilus as above

Some Omega 7077 flatlinks..

And some NOS JB / Kestenmade bracelets..

I would love to say 'dibs' on all of them but I doubt I could afford any of them 🥰

A few are idling awaiting their turn in the sun.

I’m a big fan of wearing my watch on a bracelet, so you could say I’ve got a few of ‘em.

This is pretty funky. I cannot seem to find any information on it, but it suits this watch so well (1920 H.Samuel). I basically bought the watch because I liked the strap so much, but it is really great to wear. Very adjustable.
