Bracelets, bands and NATO have always been part of the experience to me, swapping them with the same watch allows to enjoy a different watch each time.
I could not say which one is my favorite, the joy is certainly to enjoy many different combos coming from the original period factory bracelets and bands to the NATOs through the Tropic, custom bands and whatever can magnify the beauty of our vintage Heuer.
Italian straps are now needed to complete the journey.
My urges change from Autumn/Winter with more classy items to Spring/Summer with more colorful bands and obvious Tropic and NATOs.
Here are some of my favorites combos
Custom racing band made from goatskin
Another one made with ultra tanned leather
Colorful NATO
Original black Cofarm, the perfect combination with the goldie (plated)
Exotic leather for the Verona
another one for this dressy Carrera
This bracelet was a beauty
Custom vintage beige for the 1533
Squared holes Tropic for the knockabout
White Tropic was OK with my daughter, sorry Schaun
Custom racing for the Skipperera
The NATO is also a joy to wear
Same for the Seafarer

Both Seafarer bands based on the guidance of Smat, thanks again my friend !
Worst experience ever, no comfort
Always loved the 70s feeling of these bracelets
and as a conclusion a last colorful Heuer combo
Sorry for the load of pictures, this is a great and fun topic !
Vintage Heuer are specially well designed to welcome many combinations.
Imagination is the limit, not the Heuer, as always.
Cheers,
Laurent
