Women's watch was bought in 1991 in Geneva Switzerland as my 21st birthday present to myself. I love this thing! Multiple jewelers have said it needs new band but no one locally can help me find one (ALABAMA).

Any advice on where to start? It does not need to be perfect match but want to have the watch be wearable. THANK YOU in advance!

What's wrong with the bracelet? It might be repairable, which might be the way to go.

The cheapest replacement solution would be to measure the inside of the lugs where the bracelet attaches to the case. Then buy an inexpensive aftermarket strap that has the same lug width, if you simply want to wear it.

A more expensive, but better solution, would be to constantly search ebay for an authentic TAG Heuer bracelet that matches your watch. I believe yours is a Ladies 1500 series, but I can't make out the reference number on the case back, which is right below the logo.

Here's an example that I think might fit your watch, but the finish is slightly different and it's pretty pricey. Without knowing the reference number, I can't be sure it will fit.
