I just got my first Sammy the other day (orange) and it came with the rubber strap. I'm more of a bracelet kind of a guy & have it on a Watchadoo at the moment. What are my choices for this one? I really don't want a Ti bracelet (prefer the weight & HATE the scratches!). I suppose I could source a steel one, but will the end links fit? Thanks for any advice/help! (Picture from previous owner - my photo skills aren't anywhere near as good!)
I would check the sales forums, and perhaps the Asian Watch Forum, for a seller refered to as yobokies (Harold). He has been a fairly consistent supplier of the Samurai bracelets. Maybe that new-fangled Google thang can help you find yobokies!
And he is a consistently great vendor, I just meant that he doesn't *always* have the bracelets in stock!
I have used Harold before for a couple of things (Sawtooth bracelet for one) & he is top notch. I was looking to see if there were any other ideas for the Sammy as I have only seen the rubber strap & the bracelet.

There's a good chance the steel bracelet will fit. Can anyone confirm?
Hey Snowback, I've got that same watch coming, should be here in the next day or two. I sold a black Ti Sammie two weeks ago to raise the funds to buy it, and my black Sammie had the Ti bracelet. I don't know if I could make myself get used to the difference in color between Ti and steel. If it doesn't bother you then by all means get the steel bracelet. For me, I'm going with a carbon fiber look strap. This pic by Michael Sandler at TZ has me hooked...
to confirm this part are the same.

And this part below is from Orient Triton. I know that Orient watch used to part of Seiko and certain parts are crossed reference. Does this look the same?

Hi all, I'm starting my first clean and re-oil project on a Citizen Aqualand, so I've been searching the forum on cleaning methods and have a few questions and thoughts on the subject.
I did a search for Cletop and Kimwipe and didn't find anything on this forum. The Cletop's are a great...
Reading Anthony's latest info on the SPB151J1 made me wonder has Seiko finally listened?
It is one thing to see their prices go up, another to admire their quality rasing the bar, but it was and is sadly at the loss of a certain down-to-earthness of the brand I loved. I dont care about owning...
Frustrated by the difficulty in obtaining bezel inserts for your restoration/mod watches? :banghead:
Me too!
So I've begun to put a comprehensive size chart together:
My idea is to put on all of the readily available bezel inserts (original or aftermarket) available on the bay and also as...
