FS: 25 different NSA vintage bands 1960s/70s Swiss Made NOS

SWISS MADE VINTAGE NOS WATCH BRACELETS GREAT FOR DIVERS, CHRONOGRAPHS OR DRESS WATCHES

25 different men’s styles
all vintage long out of production
several size ends available - straight or curved
long or XL custom bands made by request
2-pc or long deployant clasp option on many styles

I've added many 7-row links style NSA bands to my offerings here. Most straight end styles can come with 18mm, 19mm or 20mm ends. I've also added rare NSA bands with 18mm curved ends and some NSA styles rarely ever seen.

Here is a chance to fit your favorite watches with New Old Stock vintage bracelets from Switzerland’s NSA, the original manufacturer of bracelets for many famous major watch brands.

SPECIAL DESIGN FEATURES: NSA men’s bands are 6 1/4 inches long. NSA makes a rare design: Every link is removable with a simple nail type link pin enabling any NSA band to be adjusted easily to any length. Plus, NSA bracelets have special “spring-loaded” comfort clasps meant to flex 1/8 inch as you wear them for perfect comfort.

HISTORY OF NSA SWITZERLAND: Also known as Novavit S.A., NSA made the bracelets on many models of the most collected brands in the 1960s through the early 1990s. The company closed down nearly 20 years ago and the stock is disappearing quickly. These bracelets originally came on brands such as Heuer, Breitling, Doxa, Jaeger-Lecoultre, Favre-Leuba, Aquastar, Zenith, Hamilton, Eterna, Zodiac, Fortis, Rado, Roamer, Certina and many others. You will see these same bracelets on many famous watch models bearing the logos of Heuer, Breitling, Zodiac, Rado and Zenith --- companies that just added their logo to the clasp.

NEED SPARE NSA PARTS: I sell individually replacement clasps, clasp springs, links, link pins and end pieces. Just email me at billmahoney@aol.com with your request

MORE PHOTOS: I have many more photos available of each model available in the NSA Swiss department at www.Squinky.com
