dw daytona 6263 - unintentional post

[deltatahoe]

i was fortunate to pick up TwoTone's dw 6263 daytona a while back; it took a trip to ziggy pretty much immediately after i received it for a couple mods (more on that later), but i ran into a bit of a roadblock finding end links that fit properly. i bought a couple different bracelets in search of end links that fit properly, but didn't have much luck. finally, when joshua posted with a new vintage daytona model here that had a new bracelet and 57

Delta -- Did you forget to complete your post?

In any case, I did see Josh's updated 6263 bracelet, which is better than some of the previous vintage rep bracelets, but I still think a gen folded link 7835 makes more sense on a DW. All 3 of my DWs have 7835s that I got from Andy (Timeman). I know the 357 end links are not spec/correct, but, as you know, the correct ones are just about impossible to locate & insanely expensive if do find them. The 357s leave a tiny gap between them & the case, but it is not noticeable under most conditions. So, all things considered, I think the 7835 with 357s is a better compromise than a rep Oyster bracelet

The 7835's are a great choice...if you have no arm hair

If you do, then this is the best option:

wierd....i posted the thread in the "my collection" instead of the "rolex" section; it must have somehow partially posted here from my preview. regardless, the complete post can be found here.
