Re: Possible to change the bracelet on the Bond GM *LINK*
In Response To: Possible to change the bracelet on the Bond GMT? ()

: I am about to purchase an Omega Seamaster 300m
: GMT (James Bond model - 2535.80.00). I am
: not a huge fan of the Bond bracelet and
: would like something a bit more toned down,
: such as that found on the Diver 2254.50.00.
: Are there any other models of traditional
: Seamaster bracelets that will fit on this
: watch? If so, where can I purchase one, or
: at least where can I find the part number so
: I can bring it to an AD.

: Question 2: I am a one-watch person and plan to
: wear it during rigorous outdoor activities.
: I would like to purchase a few heavy-duty
: nylon bands with sturdy buckles. Anyone know
: where I might be able to order these? Thanks
: in advance for any info.

Check out Otto Frei at the link below for the Speedy-style bracelet found on the 2254.50. The bracelet number is 1610-930. There are no other Omega Seamaster bracelets that are designed to fit the Bond GMT.

Otto Frei also sells nylon straps, but maybe some other forum members will have suggestions for other places to look as well.
