Re: Poll:SMP w/Speedy Style Bracelet
In Response To: Re: Poll:SMP w/Speedy Style Bracelet ()

I don't really care for the speedy either that much.

For one thing, the SMP full size is a big heavy watch and the speedy bracelet doesn't seem to carry the weight as comfortably as the big Bond bracelet. Second, I hate the fact that it tapers at the clasp. Third, I agree with Derek that it looks ordinary, like every other Submariner wannabee watchband out there. And finally the bond just seems to conform better to my wrist with its intricate 9 piece links.

After I got my 2254.50 with the speedy I went and purchased a pre-owned bond bracelet and switched it out, couldn't be happier.

Course this is just one guys opinion... your mileage may vary.
