A wee bit chunky on the wrist but i've seen similar ...

Some time within the last year i've seen a 50's Dash Board Autavia mounted on a black leather wrist strap (a similar style strap you see used on an Omega Dynamic wrist watch).
The auction was listed in german but from what i could gather it was a rally co-drivers original timer and they claimed the strap was an original Heuer item also.
Has anyone here seen this before ?
Cheers - Darren
