Got the gold tone in minty condition to match my exact same stainless in minty condition. Unlike my stainless, this doesn't have the original bracelet unfortunately.

This should reach me by mid week I sooooooo nearly made you pay more for this one but changed my mind about 30 times and eventually baulked as I don’t know enough about this model. Really glad it’s gone in-house and looking forward to seeing some nice pictures of it.

Really glad it’s gone in-house and looking forward to seeing some nice pictures of it. Would have hunted you down :mad: My max was £50.67 I already have a trashed but working donor for the circuit or if needed the movement. It's the same look as my 7t34-0aa0. Love the blue hands. I'll definitely post pics when done. Hope the bracelet is long enough.

That one would have come on a black leather strap when new, not a bracelet. Nice OMSB, though!

Awesome! Thanks for the picture. I’ve seen my stainless in an original picture with a stainless mesh which I have. I just assumed. Funny because I was going to get a black leather strap to contrast the gold color. Does it look like a textured rally strap? I think I see holes in it Thanks again

Nice :thumbup: Have a look at my go-to guy for exotic leather straps ZicZac leather in Ho Chi Minh City Thanks. I have a few Vietnamese made alligator straps and I’ve found their quality control to be somewhat suspect. I can’t beat the price and overall look and decent fit and finish. But on a couple, the scales of the alligator are literally peeling up. I can bend the strap and a scale or two will rise up off the padding. So it’s been hit or miss for me. I’d like genuine ostrich but it’s $75. The Vietnamese handmade ones are cheap but use the legs and not the body so it looks nothing like ostrich - that smooth leather with little bumpy dots.

Stumbled on this one cheap. The problem is, the pictures are so bad, I don't know if it's the SRPC03 (Sakura Fubuki) or the SRPC97 (Fuyugeshiki). For what I paid, either one would be fine. I'll have to wait and see . . .

Nice :thumbup: Have a look at my go-to guy for exotic leather straps ZicZac leather in Ho Chi Minh City I found this alligator strap on eBay supposedly handmade in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam of genuine alligator.
I paid...wait for it...$6.49!
We'll see if I "get what you paid for" when I receive it. To wear a few times a month, why the hell not give it a try for the price? The seller has 100% feedback with 412 sales in 12 months. Looks like a nice grain pattern, lightly padded, decently stitched. I have loads of gold tone buckles to put on it.
Description states:
Condition: New 100% Color: Black Surface material: Crocodile skin Inside material: Cow leather Size: Lug width: 20mm Buckle width:18mm Long part : 120mm / Short part : 74 mm

I remember as a kid in the 80's, my older brother wearing a jean jacket with Iron Maiden and Eddie painted on the back. That was the shit back then.
My claim to fame was dressing as Ace Frehley from Kiss for Halloween in first grade, 1980. Definitely influenced by my brother.
