Simon, since I suspect you are really and madly into vintage pieces...to add to the joy of owning that watch, I'd suggest you go through your usual sources and source a "skeleton" bracelet, which i think was started by Omega years and years ago. I used to have a decent solid gold Wittnauer years ago, had it restored and then fitted it (after a long search) with a gold skeleton strap. It came out very unique and special. If you find a bracelet and it comes out too big for your wrists, take it to a jeweller to have it "trimmed". make sure you have the small clasp, as they all come with small clasps, tightened. I think all these skeleton bracelts come in yellow gold only. If you find one that's in yellow gold have it dipped/coated/polished to white gold to match your steel case. ;)
