[Uncle] Lincoln Bracelet (Omega Seamaster 176.007)

Uncle's notes

One of my all-time favorite watches is the 176.007. When I saw this model many years ago it was love at first sight. The first one I bought had the original bracelet, but it was a disaster. The end-links weren't a great fit at all, and after looking through scores of images online, it seems that they were never a great fit! I decided I was going to make a bracelet for this model and quickly got to work.

I soon discovered that because of the truncated lugs and difficult hole placement, this was going to be a challenge. After a few months of struggling to get the right fit with standard end-links, I decided to try my hand at solid ones. This too proved to be a challenge, and what I present to you is my best shot at a bracelet for this model that wasn't really designed well for a bracelet to begin with.

Please note: The bracelet cannot be sized for a wrist smaller than 6.5 inches (16.5 centimeters)
