cib0rgman Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 I got tired of living with the flaws of the GMTII Ceramic bracelet. So I decided to take it a step further and fix the flaw. I use a Noobmariner bracelet end links, this is not easy task and you have to have the skills to perform the modification end links usually get destroyed trying to take them apart. Mines are no exception I was not as patience as I should be. At the end it all works out. Take a look at the pictures. Noticed how the gap between the end link and the bracelet is gone. I polished the end links to a mirror finish a perfect match. After removing the old end links it makes the bracelet shorter just move the micro adjustment. Now If I could just only replace the Cyclops this will be a perfect GTMIIc. Thanks for looking, let me know what you think Cyb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnkay Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 I wasn't aware that there were any GMT IIc versions out there with poor fit at the end links. The two I have, and most of the ones I've seen, even the cheap ones like at Watcheden have no gap whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone else tried this mod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shundi Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Well done! Looks great!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watcher Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Looks very good. I have never bought this model because of the humpback end links as it would annoy the hell out of me but I may now think about it. That said, the pics on Josh's site of the latest V rep looks to have a smoother end links and not as chunky. Well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap is not between the endlink and the case. the gap is between the endlink and the bracelet. the hole that connects the endlink to the rest of the bracelet is too far out. that is what creates a gap.
