DVNE Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Which of these would you keep? On one of the bracelets, the rivets are bulkier. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bart Cordell Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 For my part I prefer the crown of the right bracelet on the first photo. But I'm not an expert... What are the source ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Top & the gens are polished on their undersides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Definitely the right bracelet in the 1st photo. The left is a Yuki with that disastrous misshapen endlink (flattened at the hole where the connector link protrudes). Ditto the question, where did you find the other band? I'd buy 3 of them right now if they were available. To get the polished underside, use Flitz metal polishing paste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DVNE Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 My only issue with that is one of the end links were cut funky but if you guys insist it is better, then I shall stay with it. My gripe with the other bracelet is one side is longer than the other from the clasp. Here is a picture of the funky cut end link...

Nanuq Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 What is the source for that band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droptopman Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 The one on the right in the first pic and bottom on the last. I went through this last year trying to find a decent aftermarket 7206. I ended up getting a gen, but I did have some luck modifying the end connection on the Yuki, which at the time was the thinnest and closest to gen except for the goofy end link connection. The modded Yuki is long gone. I will see if I can find the before and after pics and also did a comparison of 3 aftermarkets to a gen.

Nanuq Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Hey DTM how about if I send you a couple Yukis for the magic end link mod? I really like them but that end piece just drives me bananas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like them but that end piece just drives me bananas. Lol, it did not turn out as good as expected. I destroyed three bracelets to make one decent one and then sold it a week later...it did lay flatter but probably not worth the trouble or expense. It's hard to believe no one can make a decent replacement, the gen is not that complicated. There has got to be some demand even with the gen owners. If I had a decent alternative I would just leave my gen in the box. I end up wearing straps on my gilt more often to save wear on the 7206.
