Hi folks, absolute newbie here, I'm six Seikos deep and no idea what's going on! Picked up this 5E31-5A70 last week - I love the dial but not a fan of the strap Any ideas for a replacement? It doesn't have to be original Seiko as want to spend as little as possible Lug width is 20mm Thanks! Ross

Am thinking something like this would suit it, one that gets a little bigger after the spring bars to marry up with the case Search for vintage seiko watch straps on thEbay

Within 5 years you'll have a problem where to store all your bracelets and in most cases you'll find something fitting from your bracelet box Meanwhile, try to match both the case width and lug width with respective areas on the bracelet. Your watch seems to have a good shape, and it should take most bracelets without looking goofy. Round shapes are usually more tricky and often one opts out for a leather strap. tommie has good suggestions.

I’m unsure as to the rules of posting eBay links but if you search “ Premium Stainless Steel Metal Watch Bands Strap Vintage Bracelet 18/20 Universal” That should show you them, they’re around £10
