Watch Straps and Bracelets

Watch Straps and Bracelets

The subject of watch straps and bracelets is just as broad as the watches themselves. So often overlooked since the moment of manufacture, there is now such great interest in obtaining the correct, original ones that an entire sub-market has developed. The correct bracelet can add thousands of dollars to the value of an Omega Speedmaster or a Rolex Submariner, whilst corfam straps made in the 1970s are now highly desirable pieces to complete the authentic look of a Heuer Monaco or other rally-racer.

It often very difficult to establish the correct item for an indidual watch and this is where the close study of original brochures and adverts can prove invaluable. We hope that contributors will share their knowledge and allow this resource to grow -it will become an important source for collectors, present and future.
