This goes with that - bracelets & heads

We seemed to be fascinated by switching bracelets between models. Maybe putting a brushed 39mm Explorer or a Sub-C bracelet onto your GMTII-C.

Please reply with your success or fail experience with swapping.

I will start.

A 214270 (39mm Explorer) bracelet on a 116710 (GMTII-C) - FAIL. Even with thinner springbars, still a fail.

A sub-c (date) glidelock bracelet will fit a BLNR.

Looks nice. Would be so cool if the BLNR was offered with glidelock bracelet as a factory option.

Has anyone been able to fit the bracelet from a 214270 (Explorer I) on a BLNR? The OP stated using thinner spring bars was unsuccessful. Would a different spring bar size work? Thanks.
