I'm in the process of shopping around / researching a 300M Seamaster -- the Bond 2541.80.00 (quartz) and 2531.80.00 (automatic) to be specific. I will be purchasing from an AD, so the following links are just for illustration purposes.
I have a question about the bracelets shown on the following pages. I love the 300M blue face, but I'm not crazy about the default bracelet found on the Bond watch shown here:
http://www.topperjewelers.com/omega/2531_80_00.html
But in doing some Googling around, I've found the bracelet that I really want (it's on the newer versions of the 300Ms) and is shown here:
http://www.authenticwatches.com/omse271.html
My questions are: Is this second link (i.e. the 'newer bracelet') just a mock-up or just have a new bracelet added on to the older Bond face? Or is this newer bracelet actually an option when purchasing the 2741.80.00? Also, what gives with this Grey market retailer's model number of 2741.80.00? Is this a special number for this newer style bracelet?
And finally, if it is not possible to get this bracelet on a new watch, how difficult/expensive is it to add the new bracelet to this face?
Thanks for any info you can provide!
