Searching for a steel bracelet - Hamilton chronograph

Hi WatchCrunchers !

I recently bought this vintage Hamilton from the 90's and I'm struggling to find a steel bracelet.

Does anyone has a reference or tips to find one on the aftermarket ?

Thanks !

Hamilton Lancaster HTC.  Lemania movement I think.

Chrono24 tells me the reference is 90650 but I haven't confirmed that.

Fitted bracelet is basically impossible to find unless they made one specifically but if you know the lug width, you can certainly find a straight end link metal bracelet that would look nice.

Staub makes nice meshes and you'll find something more budgety on strapsco or strapcode and something more premium on forstner.

Thanks Edge for your message. 

I knew I should had bought rhe one with the steel bracelet but it was way more expensive. 

I’ve seen 20mm steel bracelet for Khaki field but I’m not sure it will fit correctly. Leather look good but the full steel look would have been better 🥹

Well I think I've found a nice fit !
I used the bracelet from my Seiko Presage and it looks good (still not perfect).

What do you think of it ?

Hello 👋

I tried a 20mm steel bracelet from eBay. President style, around 35€, not the best quality links but it feels nice.

Does it look nice to you ?
