look fine to me but this doesn't give you the chunckiness of the original PO bracelet look.
The PCL looks cool on it.

That is a good looking bracelet on your PO, I think. Cheers, Bill P.

That's an interesting spin on the PO. Sounded like a odd idea, but the look is not bad at all. The polished center links kind of make the watch pop a bit.

where it really catches light and the polished centre links stand out (in the first pic) is not so good but otherwise (in the lower two pics) it looks brilliant to me...a very nice idea that has gone great
in the lower two pics it looks a little like the Omega's bracelet for the speedmaster attached to your PO, to me, and thats not a bad look at all..actually thats a very traditional look for Omegas and thats great
the regular PO bracelet is also

Gives it a bit of a retro look harping back to the Seamaster 300.

Thanks all the comments, fellows.

I am experimenting the PO for a retro look of the old Seamaster.

This bracelet is lighter and less chunky as the OEM, it does mould quite well to my wrist (maybe it's design of the bracelet) better the OEM and fit under my shirt cuff. Don't get me wrong on the OEM bracelet, they feel great on the wrist as well and I like the chunkiness!

I must admit that the PO OEM bracelet is probably the most comfortable of my watches.

I think it looks good, as always you can rotate it gives the watch a completly different look.
