Man I wish they made a bracelet for the 44! That thing would be a beast! Well ... Reason to think about a 42 in the future ... The black/red would be my choice for sure :))

I've always preferred a bracelet. A PAM or a dress piece is the only exception IMO.

I think it looks better on bracelet than on the original leather strap.

On the bracelet it looks more serious, if you know what I mean, looks like it has alot more value.

it looks awesome but I can imagine the huge weight on that thing, but if it doesn't bother you then fine as it does look really cool, for me I like either bracelets or rubber, never been a huge fan of croc, in that case prefer normal leather...

Got used to the weight in about 5 minutes - Had it mounted on my Diver prior. Rubber in the summer is fantastic

Thomas, what sized screwdrivers do you use for the bracelet? The plots stay with the bracelet, correct?

The screwdriver I use is 1.4mm and the bracelet has its own plots. So no need to fumble around with those tiny screws.
