Watchmeister Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 IMHO, it is very good quality relative to the gen. It sits nicely on the wrist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 The bracelet is great. Once you wear it for a few days, you'll miss it if you slap on another watch in the morning. The only drawback, and it is a major drawback, is that it is virtually impossible to remove the bracelet. The endlinks are really really hard to free. I have used many different tools, and I have yet to come up with a definitive way to remove the spring bars. Any suggestions are highly sought in respects to this matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions are highly sought in respects to this matter I gave up as well.....virtually impossible to get off Luckily, I like it on the bracelet and think it is very comfortable.

jeff g Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Have to agree...the bracelet is very comfortable. I prefer it to the leather strap. I found too that a nice Cape Cod treatment made the whole piece shiny and more buttery feeling. This is a wonderful watch/bracelet combo. Considering the cost of EL's pieces and the Ziggification charges for date wheel and lume fixes, the 3717 is a 500.00 watch, but well worth the money IMO. Sounds as though a lot of us feel that way. It would be interesting to know how many of this model The Zigmeister has worked on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 The only drawback, and it is a major drawback, is that it is virtually impossible to remove the bracelet. Oh? Mine was a little tricky, but nothing too worrying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried everything it seems, and it is still a veritable pain in the azz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
