Can anyone tell me where I could start looking to find a bracelet to fit my 7546 6040?

I have looked on eBay etc. Basically I think any 20mm bracelet would do but the end links are what I am not sure about. The case seems to be a similar shape as a couple of my dive watches, ie a 6309, 4205 and a 7S26 0030, but it is slimmer. Needs to be 20mm with curved ends. I have had it on an ordinary leather strap but it did not look right with the straight ends on the strap, also tried a nato but I am not keen.

Rather have a genuine Seiko one, not sure what the original style would have been but doubt I"d find one anyway.

Would be grateful if anyone had any ideas.

Cousins UK has some curved ends bracelets, e.g.  B20489 . Also various can be found on Aliexpress.

Thanks, that's the sort of thing. I see that they also supply curved end links separately. I wonder whether I could fit some to a straight end Seiko bracelet that I have?

I haven't seen the separate curved ends, you have to look into the ends of the bracelet that you want to adapt to see if it can be done.

      Yeah I figured that one out when I googled and realized that my spindle is actually from Horia. It's smooth with no screwable cap.

      Parts sourcing for FHF 180 movement

      By JohnR725 · Posted

      I am puzzled by something a snipped out something from your image and what exactly disassemble tell us? my confusion is the symbol for FHF looks like image I have below year symbol as a star and righted this instant are not finding what that means? I suppose we could use the fingerprint system to verify it really is what it claimed to be. Size itself is really interesting there's almost no watches in that particular size. Then were missing details in the photograph above like diameter of movements to verify it really is the size and are missing the setting components.   went to the bestfit book looking at the symbols didn't see it. Look at the link below I did find it back to the bestfit book and yes it really is there https://reference.grail-watch.com/documents/history-of-ebauches-sa/ then bestfit book says lists the size as 10 1/2. one of the problems with vintage watches is finding parts yes a donor watch would be good.

      Oiling Dubois Depraz chrono module pivots (Omega Speedmaster Reduced)

      Actually, this could be the issue. Drag from the module could be overcoming the cannon pinion. It was definitely not at the point that the driving wheel was loose on the cannon pinion, it took a little bit of effort to rotate it when applying the grease. Maybe I need to look again at applying oil to the pivots.    Yeah, it's very annoying. I don't want to give up on it, so back on with it over again until I catch a break.

      The sping is not pushing directly on the cap, but is pushing against the spindle. So, even if the usual black cap is replaced with the micrometer cap, the spindle is still pushed up.

      But he tells that the micrometer cap doesn't screw into the spindle. How can the spring push the spindle up if there's nothing to grip? There is a screw visible on top of the micrometer cap so should it be able to screw into the spindle? I'm feeling really dumb now. Does anyone manufacture that cap as an aftermarket item? Might be worth investing. Ok so the spindle is different, now I get it.
