Tissot new strap

Does anyone know where I could buy a leather strap for this Tissot?
It just has unusual lugs/lack of lugs.

Re: How to......

A bit late now I know, but in the future have the watch sent to a relative who can pass it on to you. Saves the parcel delivery and questions that always follow. This gives time to introduce the wearing of the watch gradually. Worked for my “friend” who had his sent to his old Mum. Sadly my (oops) h...

Re: Tissot pr516

It is a 1972 watch and has a bit of sentimental value.
Would get a bracelet if I could find one but strap would be a good second best.

Tissot pr516

Could anyone help my search for a replacement strap for my wife’s very old Tissot pr516? Not sure if this sort of strap has a special name. It is one where the end that attaches to the watch does not fit between the lugs of the watch but rather the strap has lugs and there is a metal part on the wat...

Re: CW watches in pawnbrokers & second hand watch dealer sho

Interestingly I have been reading about companies like cashconverters recently and how their markups are quite high. Makes you wonder who sells the watches to them and why? I speak as a customer who bought a nice Seiko from them recently. Cheapish too. (Still managed to make a loss when selling on t...
