Decided to see what the RC would look/feel like with the bracelet on so switched out the HB this morning.

Have to say its quite comfortable and gives it a very different look. To me, the Hornback gives off a sporty yet dressier look whereas the bracelet is more industrial and tool like.

I'm liking it!

Looks great!

dddrees · 5 May 2012, 08:17 AM

Looks good.

How much is one of their bracelets if purchased seperate from the watch anyway?

You can get one for $2500 or so I have been told.

kilyung · 5 May 2012, 08:36 AM

Oh baby! However I think I prefer the RC on Diver rubber and tang.

Darlinboy · 5 May 2012, 08:38 AM

Looks good!

I personally prefer bracelets to straps.

TSW · 5 May 2012, 08:39 AM

I have the option to switch to bracelet as well, And i must say it looks great on both the RC and the Volcano!

Thanks David.

Nice change-up!

HL65 · 5 May 2012, 09:23 AM

Looks pretty cool! Nice change up too...

Very nice. Always good to have options.

DoxaDavid · 5 May 2012, 01:03 PM

Thanks.

Not sure what the fuss is about the bracelet not being comfortable. It fits my wrist nicely but as I have read, I do have a flat wrist so perhaps this is why.

Regardless, it fits me well and I have always liked the look of a bracelet so may have to give it a run for awhile. Next up, will give the rubber a try at one point down the road!

Rollie2011 · 5 May 2012, 02:27 PM

Very cool!

iLLGT2 · 5 May 2012, 03:09 PM

Looks awesome, almost livens it up and makes it look newer?

My RC is looking tired to me recently :( I mean it's not all scratched or dinged up, but the dial/those green numerals, etc... Just feels so dated, am I the only one?

h999r · 5 May 2012, 03:22 PM

Looks more expensive now :)

B. Doggy · 6 May 2012, 12:06 AM

For the better IMHO. I'm a sucker for bracelets on AP's.

Spanby200 · 6 May 2012, 01:06 AM

I think it looks great, gives the RC a whole different presence, very impresive

I like it. Great choice David. Always good to change up every now and then.

997.2TTS · 9 May 2012, 10:51 AM

Love the look, and totally agree with the others that it's nice to change it up a bit once in a while. Amazing how a strap, or in this case a bracelet, can make such a big difference! Who said only Panerai owners can have fun with strap changes?

exchange83 · 9 May 2012, 11:09 AM

Fantastic! Great change up

DoxaDavid · 9 May 2012, 11:21 AM

Thanks guys. Still have it on the bracelet. When it gets a bit warmer here will try the rubber out next!
