      So… Still looking for a cheap, simple Seiko w/ metal bracelet... What do you guys think about this'un?..

      Oh, and adding: I'm going to my local shop and ask them whether it's possible to put a steel bracelet on my current watch... Gotta - save - money...

            NATO straps carry that IWC very well also…

                I know, I was making reference to Davito's IWC and obviously doing a poor job of it.  :-\ My bad.

                                  Like that one a lot Rocket…clean, classic, and seemingly quite sturdy.

                                    Went to my local jewelry and watches shop… Good folks... Found a decent steel bracelet for 30 €, I was stoked to find a replacement for my smelly leather one this cheap... Woman goes to attach it to my watch... Returns after a minute... Turns out Weil uses special detachment pieces that almost guarantee that you can't use any bracelets but theirs on your watch... "Oh: and a real Weil steel bracelet will set ya back about 250 €"...

                                    They're getting some more bracelets in next week, one which has a curved bar, so let's hope that'un will work  😠

                                      That sucks. 
                                      I hate it when manufacturers pull that kind of stunt.  Puts me off buying their product entirely.

                                      You should have popped open Finn's shipment and checked that one out, just for the heck of it. 😉

                                        I did… DUH  😉 Finn knows the deal - I always put on his stuff first... Nice watch, really nice, but not my thing... Not into divers and all that...

                                        So yeah: cheap Seiko here I come I guess...

                                          Yeah, should've known… 😉

                                          While you may not be interested in that particular model, it does give you a good idea of the general quality in their watches.  So you might be interested in something like this:

                                          Since you've already got a cheap bracelet, this might fit your parameters…

                                            Are those type of models made in Japan, Chris?.. Are cheaper Seikos, for that matter?..
