We report observations of the likely optical counterpart to the 358.61-s X-ray pulsar SAX J2103.5+4545 (Hulleman et al. 1998, A&A, 337,L25). Optical photometric observations of the field around the best-fit BeppoSAX position (R.A:=21:03:33, DEC = +45:45.0) carried out on 2003 June 8.96 with the 1.3-m telescope of the Skinakas Observatory (Crete, Greece) revealed several Hα emitters but only one inside the ~2arc-min BeppoSAX radius error circle.
