Wrong, just wrong.
It needs a nice alligator skin........
The 21mm lugs are a PITA on these
Seen one for sale on ebay and thought it looked good so tried it on my old oyster bracelet. Doesn't quite fit as only 20mm and usually reserved for the 17q but think it takes an already astonishingly good looking watch for the price up another notch.
Anybody know where i will get a 21mm steel bracelet?

Doesn't look right if I'm being honest
Horrible, IMO.
I use two straps on my Visodate, both Horween Shall Cordovan (one black, one brown)....couldn't be happier tbh.
IMO the watch would look fantastic on a beautiful leather strap.
I did see a white faced bambino,with a solid end linked bracelet ,which looked really nice.
Looks like I'm in the minority again....
A timely bump for the last day of the auction...
Or am I just a grumpy old cynic?
For what it's worth, I quite like it on that bracelet.
I think it looks okay... I think a mesh may look better though.
IMHO the only steel bracelet it would look good (mainly on the white dial) on would be:
a) a fine (thin) mesh
b) an expanding, vintage style bracelet
The black dial simply belongs on leather.
Wonder is anyone can advise on where to source, a quality vintage style Mesh, and Expanding bracelet for my Bambino.
Thanks.

What about a spiedel twist-o-flex? Many different styles and width I have one on a vintage Elgin.
Will take a look
