ISO Lorier Neptune Compatible Oyster Bracelet (It's a good idea)
I love my Lorier Neptune
BUT
I'd really like to complete that vintage Submariner look with a proper Oyster bracelet. Does anyone know an existing bracelet that would fit?
In the meantime as an experiment, I took the original Neptune end links and loosely plunked on a (surprisingly quality) bracelet from a San Martin. I think it looks GREAT (if only it fit.)
The quest continues.

You can see below, the problem with this one was the connecting link gap is 10.5mm but the San Martin was closer to 9mm. Need something that either has that 10.5mm connecting link or preferably a bracket fits the watch itself.
Short of straight end piece bracelets don't know off hand what will fit.
If you are truly wanting it, my only advice would be trial and error, which will get expensive.
Look at Forstner Komfit?
My Lorier has shoulder less springbars and wears a single pass 24/7, so I don't know what will/won't fit.

I've seen people use the Forstner straight end rivet and it looks pretty good, but man, I really want to get it right! Trial and error it is for me, I guess, unless someone out there has cracked the code.
TBH the fit on the photos looks better than the one on some Seiko with their original bracelets.
