Bracelet for a ROO Panda?

My Panda is on a strap.

While I love it, I find that I prefer bracelets for my watches.

Anyone know where I could get a bracelet for it?

Is it hard to swap from strap to bracelet and back?

Stop messing with perfection!

I don't think it's worth it...you would need to buy bracelet (I think $2K?) and also get a conversion kit (plots) since I don't think it will just bolt
up.

If this was for a RO bracelet, I'd say heck yeah...but for the ROO bracelet, meh.

Call APSC and get transferred to the parts department. You can get on the list, I believe it is still a 8 month wait. I found a ROO bracelet for my Diver in the FS section

bracelet is more beautiful in Panda.

I suggest you to use bracelet, but the most horrible is the price. an AD told me it can cause 1/2 of the watch itself (I believe it is wrong).

The Panda looks incredible with a bracelet.

So if the watch came with a bracelet, it would need a conversion kit to go back to the leather?

Price is just over 2k and can be ordered through the AP Service Center.
Usually on back order.
Steep price tag, but well worth it imo.
I got lucky when I got mine. Just walked in and they had it in stock.

1. You don't need a conversion kit, the bracelet comes with plots.
2. The plots transfer from stainless steel to leather if you want.
3. The bracelet is expensive, but very well worth it.
4. This topic is covered every few months, just go back and search...

Cheers!

The bracelet is amazing. Makes it a much heavier piece but it is extremely well made.

I purchased mine w a bracelet and added a hornback.

Go for it.
