Julian,

What a story. The thing is that after 20 years of using my "strap-less" and by now worn regatta 134.602 as a "stop-watch" in my garage (for paint/glue curing, etc.), today I thought why not wearing this watch again? So I visited a watch shop to inform about the possibilities to find an original and matching Heuer strap. Many laughs so I ordered a leather strap.
Searching the web for this green metal Heuer strap I stumble upon your Regatta, not green as mine but obviously in better shape since you left it at your moms house. No idea about the price thou. If you still have it for sale and have come to a price I would like to be informed,

Thank you, regards
Erik
