Forstner Model O Stainless Steel Watch Bracelet for Seiko SKX and Seiko 5 Sport
- Price
- $175
The Seiko SKX diver series is an all-time classic - tough as nails with a great look to boot. It's no wonder these watches are so popular among enthusiasts. However, an oft-repeated complaint about the series is the quality of the OEM bracelet, which doesn't achieve the solidity and build quality of the watch itself.
Forstner's Model O is a traditional oyster-style bracelet that works wonders with the Seiko SKX (and the Seiko 5 Sport series with 22mm lugs). With its fully brushed finish, taper to 16mm and spring link behind Forstner's push-button milled clasp, the Model O provides a refined-yet-sporty look and an excellent wearing experience.

- Solid 316L stainless steel, including solid steel curved end pieces.

FAQ
Q: Do you sell watch bands for women?
A: We do! Many of our short-length straps are the perfect size for women.
Q: Can you suggest a strap that looks amazing with my watch?
A: Unfortunately, because the range is so vast (and personal taste is subjective), we cannot advise regarding aesthetic suitability for specific models and styles of watches.
Q: I have an Apple watch. Will any of your straps work for me?
A: Sure! Our handy Apple watch band adapters accommodate most 22mm straps.
Q: Are spring bars available?
A: Yes, for each strap that is not already integrated with quick-release spring bars, we include one free pair of strong, seamless double-flange stainless steel bars.
Q: What strap size do I need?
A: To determine your size, use a metric ruler to measure the internal distance (in millimeters) between the lugs of your watch.
Q: My Bonetto Cinturini deployant strap is too long. Can you help?
A: Of course! See our Bonetto Cinturini sizing guide for cutting instructions.

This Forstner bracelet look and quality surpasses the Tudor OEM bracelet. Excellent clasp. Great feel on the wrist.
This is my 4th Forstner bracelet. Incredible style and build quality. Surpasses many OEM bracelets. If you are considering an aftermarket bracelet for your watch, look no further. They are not inexpensive, but definitely worth every penny.
