alternative steel bracelets?

probably not something that happens often, but i've often wondered how the sub would look on some other stainless bracelets. i'm constantly switching from nato to bracelet to rubber to leather, and figured i might try my hand at switching up the look a little bit with a differently styled bracelet.

anyone have any pics?

Only other I would consider would be an OEM jubilee, otherwise it's just not worth the effort IMO.

IMHO the sub belongs on an oyster bracelet. I am ok with rubber or leather but not another SS bracelet. Again just my opinion.

Currently I've got an OEM jubilee on my GMT; maybe it's time to try it on my 14060 to see what it looks like. I've thought of this in the past but never got to it.

I've seen pics of Subs on mesh steel bracelet, similar to what Omega and Breitling use on some of their diver models. Don't look bad at all, imho.

I was just looking at doing that on my BBR. Again, haven't gotten to it. Maybe today I'll mix things up a bit.

It is hard to improve on perfection, and the Oyster bracelet defines the word.
