: no, I don't think it's a lame idea. Well the
: bracelet was cheap, two bottles of wine totaling about EU8 in
: today's money. Had to file the endlinks down to 18mm though,

Thanks guys! Love the feedback, better than I expected. Bernard, will probably go the Novavit route soon. In the mean time - Mike, I love the ingenuity, also great photo! I took some cheap end links that I had lying around, some bolt cutters and metal file and voila - I got my oyster band to fit! A fun little project and a very usable solution! Thanks again.
