ROO diver chrono on bracelet?

Hi all - curious if anyone has tried (and have pics) adding a steel bracelet to the ROO diver chrono? AD tells me this is do-able but I'm curious how it would look before ordering an OEM bracelet.

Thanks
GS

Im not a fan of roo bracelets. I think your watch looks perfect as is. Not to mention the bracelet will make the watch quite a bit heavier.

Thanks Gummy - I like your pics on bracelet. I decided to order the bracelet and should arrive in the next week or so

Yamazaki - thanks for your feedback. I like it on strap too but felt it needs to be changed up a little with the bracelet. Initially I wanted to order a titanium bracelet but AD warned that Ti is darker color than the steel. Not too concerned about weight tho as I have other heavier or similar weight watches :). As long as the weight is distributed evenly I usually don't have a problem

I think you'll love the ability to change it up.

Had the Diver Chrono on at Vegas boutique and its a beast...be sure and post some pics once you mount it up!

Are these the new or old style bracelets? I wear my new style bracelet tight and find very uncomfortable which is why I rarely wear it.

I think they're too chunky for me, but that looks really good, if you can pull it off go for it

I bought it new from AP boutique in Singapore this year. I have always thought that there is only one type of bracelet for AP ROO?

Yes, I do agree that this bracelet is not the most comfortable to wear. Still prefer the rubber strap on 44mm. But with bracelet, I do not need to worry about getting my watch wet. I might be getting the grey rubber strap for my 42 ROO, still considering.

My wrist is around 7" and I feel ok with it except I do feel that it is a lot heavier than all my other watches. Almost same weight as Omega PO 46mm

It would look... heavy.

Love the bracelet but the side pieces by the closure (for me) got uncomfortable.
