Hi - I am considering getting a 1803 and wanted to get some opinions on whether it would be a bad idea to get an 1803 without a bracelet (noting that I am highly unlikely to ever wear it with the gold bracelet)? The reason I am asking is that there are a lot more dial configurations I like that are only available on strap

Thanks

Erik

For steel watches I don't mind not having the bracelet because I can wear the watch on leather or perlon. For gold watches I'm only wearing them in the heat if I have the bracelet...my RG 1012 gets zero wrist time in summer because it's on leather.

I'd recommend getting the watch on a good tight bracelet, that's what I did with my 1803. But what's right for me mightn't be right for you - and remember this is an 1803, not a rare watch. You can always find a bracelet later and have Michael Young restore it to new, if you can't live without it.

its very common and popular for 1803 to be on a strap
I prefer mine on black croc
