Nice but I don’t think I couldn’t change the original bracelet for it.

Beautiful! I have a bluesy, this is a great idea. I am always nervous about changing bracelets. What tool do you use? Any advice?

Was a little more challenging getting the spring bars back on with the rubber bracelet - had to use a regular spring bar tool (model FB-504 from Otto Frei). No scratches at the end. whew! |

I think the modern Rolex bracelet is almost perfect. That said I really like this.

looks fantastic, i bet it wears just as if not more comfortable depending on the heat and humidity of the day.
I dont understand why so many take issue with a little bracelet swap. If it means you find news ways to appreciate your watch or find new ways to wear it more often without doing permanent modification to the watch then why not?! can go back to the bracelet within minutes and im sure this has made a watch you have owned for some time feel fresh again, plus you can do a real great cleaning when its off the bracelet of both watch and the bracelet and all of that I find makes the watch feel more like its genuinely "yours" instead of the investment or something youre afraid to wear because of its cost, value etc etc.. the weekend is upon us, everyone be safe and enjoy. God bless |

Agreed. There are plenty of bracelet swaps I don’t care for, but I do love this one. Thinking of doing it myself. |
