gplracer Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 I have a DW 6263. I am really happy with it but I wonder how much better a gen band would be. Honestly that band does not seem that bad but what do I know? I have never seen a gen bracelet for this watch in person. I figure the options are as follows: 1. Use the bracelet that came with the watch 2. Buy a gen 7835 folded link bracelet 3. Buy a gen 78350 4. Buy a gen 7205 5. Hope that Yuki comes out with a 7205 and Freddy reviews it. That review goes well (Lots of hope I know) Can someone enlighten me on the differences between the standard DW bracelet and a gen one. Also, is the 7205 comfortable to wear?

Just exactly what or who is DW? and do you have any photos of the stock band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Option 6: Genuine 'Rolex of Geneva' 19mm leather strap: $60-100. (I rather like the honey brown ostrich and the black lizard.) Yuki tang buckle: $18. Say goodbye to your endlink headaches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The problem with straps is that they leave the laser etchings between the lugs visible (gen cases were engraved, not etched), which are a dead give-away for an alert WIS. All of my 62xx Daytonas are fitted with gen 7835/357 folded link bracelets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
