FS: NOS steel bracelet stock-up sale, any 4 for $225

Special Chronotrader offer just to get things rolling...any 4 bracelets featured in this ad(each one must be a different style) for $225 plus the cost of your choice of shipping method. Offer good only one week until 7/22.

You can save up to $95 off the regular individual prices below. Great time to stock up on these and tuck a few away for the future when those watches pop up and you'll wish you had one of these bracelets.

A rare chance to select from six different styles of NOS (New Old Stock) vintage Swiss Made steel bracelets that originally came on many of the most famous 1960s and 1970s watches. These are NOS bracelets made by the Swiss company NSA, which made the bracelets on many of Heuer's most popular 1960s/1970s chronograph models including the Heuer Monaco and also came originally on Breitling chronographs. Nice, heavy quality construction rarely found in modern bracelets for less than $200-$250.

Heuer and other watch brands just replaced the clasp. NSA made bracelets in the 1960s/70s for many diver's watches and other stylish watches by makes such as Longines, Jaeger-Lecoultre, Favre-Leuba, Zenith, Roamer, Movado, Zodiac, Fortis and Rado. These bracelets are often featured on the large vintage chronographs and diver's watches in their original advertising in the 1960s and '70s. NSA stands for Novavit SA as signed on each bracelet’s box.

*****Look at the photos at the bottom of this ad to see several examples of these bracelets on watches such as Breitling, Favre-Leuba, Roamer and Enicar.

These SS bracelets will also nicely suit vintage Omega, IWC and other brands.

All of the bracelets featured here have 20mm straight ends, but with a bit of filing of the 20mm ends, these bracelets will easily fit 18mm and 19mm watches. The width of the bracelets’ links are 18mm, but the ends are 20mm as shown in the close-up pics, making the bracelet fit well on watches 18mm to 20mm.

Each bracelet comes in new condition in its original NSA box and packaging. They are solid stainless steel with all links fully removable for fine adjustment capability for a perfect fit. The outer clasp bears the subtle NSA logo and the inside clasp is stamped Swiss Made and steel. Holes for spring bars are 2mm in diameter.
