Vacheron overseas 37 mm LF strap
I just got this watch and bracelet is Broken. I don't like the looks of It and have seen great rubber straps in the web that I would gladly fit into It.
The thing is that all straps I step onto seem to be for newer models, for bigger cases.
So I ask for help, do you know any seller that has straps for this? Model 42042/423a

Answering myself I found this approach

There's also an OS alternative. I've asked my local store about It but it's Brown designed for a golden versión of the first gen
Also contactes a strap atelier to see if he can make the first alternative. I'll post if I finally order
I don't know of any rubber straps sellers but I had leather straps made for watches with proprietary endlinks.
What I was usually told is that I will need to provide an endlink attachment or an old donor strap. With that I could get a new strap made for the same price as any custom strap of the same leather. Something like this, but for your model.
The below image is from Delugs, who offer some of them for new models, maybe they can hook you up with something, i.e. know a supplier, but I think the lugs on your watch are longer.
I believe to have read that one of the bigger French strap makers, not sure whether Camille Fournet, Jean Rousseau or ABP, offered a full endlink reconstruction. But prices were... intense.
Yeah, I searched Delugs and got excited but... Nope, only newer models. Every other supplier asks for the piece, the endlink which I don't have and House doesn't provide. Let's see what comes out of what I ordered
This IS what I sent em xddd
