Help needed!!! Come on help a buddy out!
Hey Guys!
Well another decision is coming up and I'm stuck. As you may know I have a Mido Multifort Powerwind in Stainless Steel. That's my first Swiss timepiece!  But when I bought it, I came without strap or bracelet. So I've been swapping straps and bracelet, and I want something for it and just for it! no more swapping for the Mido! So I've been browsing and I found a nice 18mm SS Jubilee, a Black Leather 18mm strap with a butterfly deployment buckle(I kinda like that), and a 20mm Nato for the upcoming SD! That one of the reasons why The Ol' Faithful doesn't get much wrist time. Now, I'd like to hear (actually read  ) what you guys think. Come on guys! help a brother ( like a son for some of u  ) out!Here's a pic of it! There it has a 2-Tone Timex Jubilee (Didn't like it too much)

Hi Gaby,
That watch is too old, but it must have a lot of sentimental value to you. A mesh bracelet would look terrific on it.......that's what I would go for, if you can find one, of couse. Good luck - JJ

At least someone cares! Umm, you're right about the age of it, I'm not sure about the exact age, But I estimate late 1950's to early 1960's. I Like the mesh. I also thought of a Jubilee, because there were some Omegas that had Rice Bracelets and my Mido has a resemblance... I'll be sending the Mido soon for servicing... It needs it!Just like this

I have to agree with Bo that the mesh would look great.
If you want a more formal look of course there is leather.
