GMT on Oysterflex
Picked up the OF from my AD today. No issues, they had many available. Paid $300. I think it looks pretty good on the GMT.

Mind sharing who your AD is!?

I normally hate aftermarket rubber, even if it is in house, but I have to admit, that looks. OK!

looks good! I'm surprised your AD allowed you to purchase the oysterflex naked. Is that common practice?

Hmm. Oysterflex halves are $270 each. He gave you an almost 50% discount?

Not sure what to say, it was $290 plus tax. Don’t know if it was a hook up or a mistake.

Looks good BTW. It also looks like yours might be an early one that glows green instead of blue. |

Either way you did well with authentic AD pieces. These are hard to get (let alone at half price lol). I have a couple spare OF and that same GMT LN and might give it a shot after seeing yours.

I think the rose gold root beer would look awesome on oysterflex.

Is there only one oysterflex band model? So you just have to ask for the oysterflex for the gold Daytona? And you use your own clasp? Looks great I’d like to do the same

I asked for the OF on the Yachtmaster 40 as it has the same lug width and no end links. And yes I used my clasp off the bracelet

Certainly a little gap but I expected that and actually prefer that for non-bracelet straps.

And Smarty makes endlinks for it if you want that look. I have them for when I put my Daytona on OF.
