    Why not, haven't seen a thread on this.

    My rose-gold Lemania needed a bracelet and I finally found one of about the same age, a super-rare Forstner Komfit. A short session with Simicrhrome after this picture smoothed it out a great deal and boy is it fabulous on the wrist.

    Looks good, reminds me of the old copper alloy pennies fresh from the mint. My Bombay cat has eyes like that.

    That is one fabulous looking bracelet ::love::
    These original Forstner bracelets are quality and I was very tempted to buy the same in steel recently.
    I have my reservations with aftermarket/generic bracelets though and wonder if they may cause damage, especially a steel plated bracelet fitted to a gold watch. Steel being harder would surely wear away at gold over time ?

    In my case, it’s gold capped, not solid. But as long as it’s not sprung, it should be ok.
