It looks like a good try for a rep Pro II. But like all rep bracelets, the real determining factor is how well the bracelet fits with the SEL. Something in me tells that there will be either a noticeable gap between them or the cut on the SEL isn't angled correctly.

Thankfully, OEM SELs can be had if you know where to look.

Agreed,

the gap looks noticeable

I think the bracelet is just in funny angle, at the pic, so the gap looks big..

here's gen Pro2 bracelet for sale, doesnt have springbars, so hard to see the actual gap:

The gen Pro II wears like so:

There's no gap between the bracelet and SEL and since the springbars used the gen are of similar diameter than the hole it goes into in the center bracelet link (the diameter is slightly larger), there are no "bracelet wobble" issues that are apparent in the rep bracelets. I hope the rep bracelet is made in a similar fashion.

Lastly, I hope they fixed the issue where the bracelet clasp fold usually needs to be adjusted on the Breitling rep bracelets so that it hugs the contours of the wrist and the links they are attached to. It seems as if the rep makers can't get the curvature of this part correctly.

And yes, I concede that if I buy the rep, I will probably also swing for a gen bracelet on the secondary market.

i think the new breit bracelets look a hell of alot better! the real test will be how it feels on your wrist. so far so good though.

i think its a big improvement over what we already have available.

It looks like you could use it to hold second helpings at the buffet.
