Just got my oyster flex bracelet from the ad and wanted to put it on for the summer. Had to get the smart end links to make them fit. Think it came out pretty good, just not sure how I’m going to remove them later on

oof. OF flex looks good with no faux end links since it already sits close to the case.

stylinleems · 22 April 2021, 05:24 AM

Looks great!!

To remove the OF straps, compress one end of the spring bar and pull out. Don't try to compress both at the same time as that is more risk to damage the OF strap or scratches to the lugs. This is how I remove my OF strap from the case of the Daytona.

I use the Bergeon 7767-F as it is easier to use to remove:

Rubber is a must down here in FL. Looks killer !

Awesome strap!

Shadow Play · 22 April 2021, 05:43 AM

Excuse my ignorance but is the original clasp from the metal bracelet you have used on the oysterflex strap and what are the smart end links you mentioned.

Looks great by the way.

Nice!

No issues buying OF from your AD?

Seddyspaghetti · 22 April 2021, 06:52 AM

I see what you did there. Nice flex.

envuks · 22 April 2021, 06:55 AM

Gotta disagree. Oysterflex doesn't "need" the Smartys to mount but I think they provide a more finished look.

PS: I'd also like to know how OP talked their AD into the OF, I had to source them elsewhere.

Sglass · 22 April 2021, 11:53 AM

Looks great!

BNA/LION · 22 April 2021, 02:45 PM

Looks Great!

I want OF too.

JSol1 · 22 April 2021, 08:48 PM

Looks great! I recently bought my first OF piece and I’m a huge fan of the comfort and fit...

I just told them I needed the oysterflex strap and they told me they’ll see what they can do. A little surprised by the price but 🤷🏻*♂️

Looks good

javier · 23 April 2021, 01:19 AM

Just buy the correct PM oysterflex, rather then change the SS version

How are you liking it on the OF vs bracelet? I'm strongly considering cutting my Rolex collection down to just to the WG Daytona OF. I haven't had the chance to try the OF as my AD never has them and Red Bar will continue to be on hold for at least a few more months.
