Forstner Bracelet for BB58
Forstner Bracelet for BB58
I just received the Forstner / JB Champion bracelet for my Black Bay 58 blue. Two words: LOVE IT!
Fit is great and it just works with the design of the watch. More than enough links for me, so should fit a 9” wrist. Clasp is twin button like Omega, milled and solid. Lots of (manual) micro adjustment holes for ideal fit.

Re: Forstner Bracelet for BB58
that does look good. I'm thinking of trying one for my BB GMT now that I've seen this

Looks really good. If I ever get one of those, that's the set up for me.

Re: Forstner Bracelet for BB58
Thanks guys. Single screw in each link for adjustment. Well done.
Re: Forstner Bracelet for BB58
Looking good! I also use the Uncle Seiko bb58 bracelet with the flip lock clasp on my bb58 gilt. These are great options (if not better than the original).

It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

I don’t usually like the jubilee on a diver look but I absolutely love this. I think that I may like it better than the BB58 on a 14060m oyster bracelet.
Re: Forstner Bracelet for BB58
Me too. I considered sourcing BB58 end links and using my 14060 bracelet on this ‘58, but I’m very happy with the jubilee.JP Chestnut wrote:I don’t usually like the jubilee on a diver look but I absolutely love this. I think that I may like it better than the BB58 on a 14060m oyster bracelet.

Re: Forstner Bracelet for BB58
End link fit looks perfect as well. I see they have two options for the Speedy Pro, a president style and a flat link that looks like what's on the new Speedys:hoppyjr wrote: ↑Thu Jun 09, 2022 9:28 amMe too.

I like both but there's something weird about the end link on the flat link one.
