I found these guys, they have a terrific collection: http://attilacustomd...atchstraps.html They are certainly not competing on price though, $675 (ex. shipping and tax) for the ones below. Would look great on 6263, would consider them if I had the gen

As the title suggests I am looking for vintage bund straps or for that matter "interesting" bund straps. Yeah I have seen the ebay stuff and a couple of common strap websites (e.g. strapcode). They are ok, but nothing to write home about. Any recommendations? I would consider going custom, but really not an ideal option due to cost. If you have a pic of any of your watches on a bund strap, you're more than welcome to share on this thread. I found a link to this beauty while searching the forum:

Unfortunately, the He valve on the new 42mm is too big and has the wrong shape. Why they are not able to match the size of the original, on something as simple as a little steel pebble, is one of these mysteries of life. We will never know... By the way the new double AR coating looks terrific (on the gen) just try it on and you'll see ! This double AR thing (and the rest of the mods) is going to be a logistical nightmare. I am in the UK, the watch is in China and this "2Geek" character is somewhere in Singapore (is this a self-inflected nickname?). So I will probably need to get a new crystal from the dealers and send it to 2Geek for double AR, purchase the gen parts and have them plated (I am going for the RG version), then send the watch, new AR coated crystal and gen bits and bobs to some moder somewhere to put it all together if it fits(not sure who yet). It might actually be easier to save £ 19,000 and just buy the gen...

Thanks for all the parts info. Crown I found the crown by using a case ref search on cousins uk, its quite cheap about £14: Omega Crown 9 x Ø6.10, Depth 4.50 Stainless Steel Waterproof I guess it would also require a new tube/stem to fit the rep. He Valve At £40, I think the gen He valve is a bit too expensive. I might try to get a 4th Gen He valve or one from the Narikaa model, if I don't find a generic after-market version. Not sure what to do with the crystal. The gen is about £140, which is quite a lot considering the price of the watch. It might be worth getting its current crystal re-coated. The double AR makes quite a difference in appearance.

"4th gen crystal with 2geek AR" Hi, Thanks for the great post. Looking to change the He valve and crown/tube with gen (if they fit). As for the crystal I am thinking to double AR coat it, I don't know how much the gen crystal costs but its probably very expensive. Who or what is "2geek AR"? Also where do you guys get the specs for the gen parts (he valve, crown/tube/stem) and purchase from? I tried cousinsuk, the problem is you need a case number to search for anything and I don't think they would have the He valve. Thanks
