SUG Help Identifying Strap Attachment Method

[drowsytaco]

Hello all! 

 

I hope this post finds you well, and I hope I’m in the correct sub forum.. 

 

I recently acquired a SUG Ref: A-5005 No. 25034 Automatic Movment (unknown) 

I love how the watch looks, the bezel is uniquely raised with holes drilled through almost to let light in.  A power reserve indicator, Day night cycle,24 hour dial around the outside of the Day/Night cycle, and date indicator between 4 and 5 O’Clock. The crystal is domed just above the height of the bezel and almost disappears beneath the bezel. 

 

My question for you all is what method of attaching the strap is this. Or where can I find the correct strap for this watch. It seems whoever repaired it last used a regular leather strap, and sent the pins down through the area the spring bar would normally go, causing it to be fragile and was torn when I received it. I’ve asked some other places and people and they seem to have never seen this before. So any help is greatly appreciated!

Hello, sorry this post has only just appeared. I don't know the answer either but others will see the post now.

As there are no conventional strap lugs and there is the full width slot to take the end of the strap, I'd guess that fixings of some sort where those pins are is the correct method?

Possibly it has some form of screws rather than pins, but I can't see how anything could be at any other location.

Originally would have had screws through the strap but without the original screws I think you'll struggle.
