Looking for a good oyster bracelet for GMT Everest band
I have a dilemma here, would appreciate any recommendations on aftermarket glidelock bracelet/clasp brands for my GMT 116710BLNR Batman.
I got an incoming Everest strap meant to be used with clasp but don't think I want to use the clasp on my bracelet. As you can see, this watch gets a lot of wear and I'd like to keep the wear the same through the entire bracelet. Called my AD, they told me Rolex wants me to bring my whole watch in to get the clasp and they might not give it to me... I'd rather just purchase a replica brushed oyster bracelet with glidelock clasp, use the clasp for my everest, then use the clasp with the brushed bracelet in the future. Which aftermarket bracelets with glidelock are the best? |

+1 outstanding on the rubber b. I wouldn't put a non Rolex clasp unless used on a tang buckle.

DO NOT use an aftermarket clasp.
Either buy the real thing (they show up in the classifieds here from time to time) or get a strap with a tang buckle. |

I don't see a problem with using an aftermarket clasp with an aftermarket strap.
Of course, the real thing would be better, but as long as it works well, looks good and is not counterfeit, I think it would be okay until the real deal comes along.
