Swap Aqua Terra steel bracelet for leather strap

I bought brand new Aqua Terra coaxial chronometer which came on 20mm steel bracelet. I removed bracelet almost straight away and replaced it with fairly basic leather strap. The original bracelet is therefore unused.

As it happens I already had an AT but quartz model and slightly smaller size. This too has steel bracelet which I now discover is the same size as my larger one. So I have two identical bracelets!

I would like a genuine Omega leather strap with deployant clasp, either in black or brown. Given that the leather strap is cheaper than steel bracelet I wonder if there is any prospect of finding someone to swap?

Any advice about this would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance!
