Title: Zodiac Sea Wolf metal bracelet
Post by: Blubarb on November 26, 2015, 07:15:38 PM
Firstly, let me say hello as this is my first post and I hope to learn as much as I can in time.  :twothumbsup

Right now I am looking for a bracelet for my Zodiac Sea Wolf but needs to fit the 17.5mm lugs. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction. I am keeping an eye on that Internet auction place.

Cheers.

I'll post a pic as soon as I work out how to do so.  :D




Any guesses as to what it would fetch on the open market? All working as should.

check our for sale section here at VZ. the correct bracelet for your watch is the "jubilee style", that's what it came with when new. I have one I bought new in 1968 while I was in the Army. a full length bracelet should have 22 links TOTAL. also search e-bay. get ready, they are NOT inexpensive.  17.5MM is correct size.

Thank you for your reply and email.  Is that 22 links including end pieces? Would you mind posting a pic of the Jubilee bracelet if neither of the following pics are correct.

This is the one that I have that I was intending to use:

As the forum rules state, you have to have permission to use someone else's photos. If you do not then please remove them. The rules also state no to link to auctions.

ANd good luck with your search! They are getting to be like finding hen's teeth.

22 links without the end caps. I cant post pics but the bracelet you showed will probably work but is NOT the correct one. the correct one has smaller width links, about 5 wide. like a rolex jubilee . hope this helps. post a "want to buy" in the "members for sale" section. the correct bracelet is marked :JB CHAMPION inside the clasp. don't consider buying one WITHOUT the correct end links, they are impossible to find and you cant attach the bracelet without them.  GOOD LUCK with your hunt. it took me a year to find one so don't give up.

Nice looking Sea Wolf.  Good luck on your mission; as Jon and Butch pointed out, most things Zodiac are getting harder to find each day!

Close enough Zodiac bracelet for the SW (for the moment) has landed and is really incredibly comfortable. Thanks for all your help.

Still have an eye out for a "jubilee style" though.
