It's just a dial I liked Patrick. :)

Ace coder and designer maybe, mathematician most certainly not...

It's this bracelet guys, from Watchgecko:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Oyster-Geckota ... B01EG4A9DS

It does not have solid end links, it is a bit rattly and the clasp isn't great, but for the money it's just fine.

I notice now though that the ones offered on the Watchgecko website itself seem to be new and improved, with a better clasp design and different endlinks - but the price has risen accordingly....

https://www.watchgecko.com/super-oyster ... -strap.php

Still good value for money I would argue!

No problem! I should also mention that I had to open out the endlinks in order to get the springbars to seat properly - from looking at the pictures of the newer version, I'm not sure if you would be able to do that sufficiently.

I was also looking for something affordable with solid endlinks but gave up in the end. I wasn't willing to spend nearly as much again as I paid for the watch. The older Watchgecko version is definitely worth a punt at 28 quid to at least get the look, and even though it is a bit rattly, that is compared to much more expensive bracelets and it is still better than many others I have tried at twice the price. Good luck with the hunt!
