Not to worry about posting in the forum - the pristine ones might get more airtime, but I'm willing to bet that quite a few of us have some real clunkers alongside those too :) And I've certainly had some eBay watches turn up on some pretty awful straps - thank you, trusty spring bar removing tool!

I don't know of a bracelet to suit, but someone here might be able to refer you - to cover your bases you could try posting a "WTB generic steel bracelet for Heuer Monaco" on the sister ChronoTrader forum too.

Good luck!
