tabularasa415 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Alright, I have a BK watch in the works (patience are a virtue in our hobby, am I right?) For those of you have one of these gorgeous pieces, are you satisfied with the bracelets that come with them? Do they look the part? I ask, b/c I have purchased a noob bracelet that has the hollow midlinks in hopes of maybe making a mashup of the good quality bracelet coming with the TW that simply lacks the hollow midlinks. As far as polish and shine, can anyone comment on how these bracelets coming with the tw subs look? Would these bracelets on the TW subs be the gen equivalent of a 93250 SEL bracelet? If so, would a gen bracelet fit the TW sub well? Has anyone purchased the gen bracelet to go with this sub and the SELs fit in nicely? (Yes, I'm considering buying a gen 93250 bracelet -- is that dumb?) Thank you in advance for your commentary. --Jer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 How much is a gen 93250 bracelet these days? Apparently the gen endlinks used to fit the WM9 but who knows whats going to fit this new model. You might be better off trying to find a used WM9 bracelet for $100 than spending up to $1000 on a gen bracelet that might not even fit. Or get a Noobmariner bracelet and put on a gen clasp like i did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabularasa415 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Thanks for the input. I've sent BK a message to see if he's aware of whether or not a gen bracelet would be compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red series 3 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 If you're planning on buying a gen bracelet it sounds like time to just buy a gen. Worst case scenario you can part it out and keep the bracelet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabularasa415 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I've decided that since the rep bracelet apparently fits the case so well I'll keep it, but buy a gen clasp. A member on another board is selling me a new one at a very fair cost. I almost bought a full bracelet off the bay in great condition that wasn't titled in the auction well (could have snatched it for $540 with shipping), but I've read that the SELs on the gen don't always fit better or even as well as the rep bracelet, so I think I'll stick with the plan I've stated above. Thanks again, everyone, for all the help and advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
