I know that this has been brought up before, but I can't find a definitive answer - what was the original bracelet on the 7006-8030 sport diver???

Tiger posted this recently - looks like a folded oyster and the end links fit pretty well, but is it original...

I'm currently mid restoration and I'm thinking either vintage aftermarket beads of rice (like a doxa) or the beautiful tss bracelet that Kelly used a couple of years back...leaning towards the former as I have one in the parts box (!).

This restoration is for a colleague at work and I'm trying to go as near to the original as possible - I found an old post of Jonathan's listing it as a Z015S - but I can't for the life of me find a picture - any clues?

Thanks all...

You might check the catalog section - or send a message to Isthmus who has scans of many of them. Often that's the best way to see what was original. That said I've found two different bands that were issues for one of my watches - I've been looking for one forever, and didn't know about the other, and could have bought one.

Hi I am almost 100% sure that was the original bracelet on that one, a great watch that i sold to finance another (wish i hadent )

I haven't been able to find a catalog pic of that particular model (there is a gap in may catalog collection from 1972-1975), but I too am pretty sure that Tiger is right and that is the original bracelet.

I'm searching through the vintage ads I've collected to see if it might be in any of them.
