Hi! I’d like to know if it is possible to regulate the strap of this vintage Orient. Someone says it should be cut...what do you think about?

That looks like a slip-through buckle, so why the need to cut it? Plus, the band tapers so if you cut off too much it won't fit through the buckle.

The band can’t slip through no side of the buckle, in this way:

Well, I stand corrected. So the strap won't thread through the buckle at all?

 

[Darius22]

No, it won’t

 

[^Gurthang54]

I'm agreeing w/ you, it must have to be trimmed on one or both ends. I'm guessing the end caps can be opened/removed? Could be a 'dealer only' adjustment, there was no online or mail order sales when the watch was produced.

I believe the symbol at 6 was used to denote quartz movements in the early years of the quartz revolution.

Maybe changing the buckle for another mesh buckle
