So... Veblenist sent me some straps. I fitted them on my Omega Seamaster 145.016 18K gold model. What a combination!

1968 Omega Constellation
This was my father's watch that he wore daily for at least two decades. He gave it to me for my birthday a couple years before he passed away along with his father's matching '68 Constellation. I'm not sure where the original strap went but I replaced the Speidel band with a brown alligator bund strap.
