Re: In the 90s sent a vintage watch back for a new bracelet?

No, but that would have been a possibility.

Interestingly they fitted a Jubilee style bracelet.

The end pieces fit well considering.

I just found it a strange decision by the factory.

They also charged £175GBP for the privilege!

As I said I have the GF original bracelet also by that's missing it's end pieces )-:

Watch itself is lovely though.

: How about a rubber F1 strap?
