ROO on bracelet feedback

Hi:

I have a 42 mm ROO (26470ST) on rubber strap. It is very comfy.

I find myself leaning for the look of the bracelet but I am worried about overall comfort. Any experiences from fellow owners?

Thanks!

Bracelet was really comfortable for me as I got lucky in having exactly the right wrist size to fit with a certain number of links. Having said that it will not be as comfortable as some Rolex given lack of micro adjustment.

I have my diver on a bracelet, had to order the 1 1/2 link back in the day when i first got it to get the sizing right

Pros, looks good, nicer taper makes it more comforable than a wide tang buckle
Cons, weighs 233g with the bracelet

Thanks for your pros and cons!

I have the Beast (previous version) and I must say it's not the most comfortable watch to wear due to the weight.
I'm always aware of it on wrist, it's definitely not a watch you forget you're wearing!

I had the bracelet on my diver and agree with endo, its better than the wide buckle strap, but after a while the weight was a little annoying and i switched it out for a slimmer buckle and strap combo and love it now.

I have the new version of the beast on bracelet and find it very comfortable...even more so than the RO bracelet.
