    Prs-25/47 replacement bracelet

    Fortunate enough to get my hands on a 47 but the bracelet is just not quite working for me and I'm considering replacing it. Has anyone done this already and if so which bracelet and end links did you go with?

    I'm considering the Berwick from Watch Gecko but unsure about the end link situation.

    Thank you. Not really the info I'm looking for unfortunately. I've ordered a couple of bracelets and I'll keep this thread updated with progress.

    New bracelts have arrives and I've put the Commando on a Brushed/polished Jubilee. A big improvement over the stock which I found over powered the watch and I wasn't fan of the protruding rivets.

    I've got a few pics. Is there a guide to uploading pics to the forum. I tried one method but said limit was 97kb per pic.

    Here we go, I hope. I think much more suited to the watch.

    Have to say, that works very well, definitely gives the watch a more vintage vibe.

    Thanks, I think it puts more emphasis back on the face rather than the bracelet as well.

    I can see what you mean. I preferred a plain oyster style bracelet in my standard Everest, but I think the rivet style works quite well on the gilt dial model.

    I looked for an Oyster style but couldn't find anything with curved end links or anything that would accommodate the OEM bracelts endlinks. That was enough to put me off as I figured straight end links wouldn't look right on this.

    Looks like it fits well. Have you got a link to the item or a pic of the clasp? Cheers

    Hello John, I ended up going with the Warrington jubilee from Watch Gecko in brushed and polished with the match curved end links. It was an easy fit to be honest and the end links took no manipulation of any kind.

    No worries John. If you pick something up I'd be interested to see how it looks 👍🏻
