NORing Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Whatever happened to the bracelet for my CD? I really really want the bracelet for it, it's a great watch (I have the swiss version) but it dosen't get as much wristtime as my bracelet watches. Someone was talking about it months ago, but then people just stopped requesting it?? Anyone? (P.S I've kept off the site recently because of economic situataion at the time. haha, just to many temptations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratedzeus Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 I do not think for the CD is a bracelet in GEN available !? For the AT there is, but not CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NORing Posted November 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 I do not think for the CD is a bracelet in GEN available !? For the AT there is, but not CD. According to my local AD it is available on an ss bracelet, obviously as a addition to the rubber. (I guess the original would loose some of it's value if you changed out the rubber, it's a limited edition, right....) The Aquatimer bracelet should be an easy fix, but with other endlinks, shouldn't it? Is nobody else interested in this? The original bracelet is more expensive than my vaction was this year, so that's out of the question!! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 It may well exist but I have seen 3-4 CD's at 2 different AD's (both 2007 and 2006) and none came with a bracelet. As was previously posted the bracelet is IMHO more critical for the Aquatimer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swemoose Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 There is a bracelet for the CD but the the problem of getting it replicated is the difference in diameter. the CD is 44 and the Aquatimer is 42. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As was previously posted the bracelet is IMHO more critical for the Aquatimer. I've never seen any CD''s with SS and understand that the Aquatimer is more critical, but I just thought others would be interested in making the CD a more heavyduty and eyecathing watch. The rubber is kind of boring IMHO But I guess you all feel different. It's still completes my 5 "superreps" collection. (IWC3717,PAM111,PAM177,AP ROO MBW,IWC CD 2006 ----> Got rid of the others now I'm down to quality b4 cuantity) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NORing Posted November 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 @swemoose, yes as I explained wouldn't that just be the endlinks on the Aquatimer that would be needed to be changed in order to make it fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebakanezzar Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 The CD does not come on a bracelet, but IWC does make a bracelet for the CD, it costs about $800. I was trying to get Angus to see if he could get it rep'd, but he sid it was not going to happen...so i let it go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NORing Posted November 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 @Nebakanezzar: That's what I said as well, the bracelet is an addition to the rubber band and it's even more expensive in norway, the listed price is more like $1500. So it's not going to be a gen for me My point throughout this whole thred, sorry if that wasn't clear, was that now that I see aquatimers with the bracelet, how hard would it be to make endlinks that fit the CD rep?? And I thought there were many owners out there that actually wanted it. But apperantly not. Thanks for feedback though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerthat Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 I am with you, I would buy one up in a heart beat. Problem is the rep makers tend not to make something that never sold or never sold well on retail. Our opinions on what would sell at none as valuable as Madison Avenue's if you know what I mean. Same reason we have been given for not repping the HBB bracelet ; not many HBB are sold on retail with the bracelet so the rep makers do not think it would sell well. I disagree but who am I. I think we are more likely to see a HBB bracelet within the next 6 months than a CD bracelet. Hopefully once they make the AT bracelet, they will add a CD bracelet to the list. The size/width at lugs is different, so it will not be a simple difference. I hope I am wrong, as I would love to buy a rep bracelet for this watch. Blue rubber only gets you so far...
