Picked up the new PO 45.5 orange bezel a few weeks ago, very nice rep but just too small for my wrist, needed a spare link.

Started contacting all the listed dealers to source 1 link.. all but one couldn't supply a spare link.

So the dealer in question offered to include two spare links if I purchased a new watch from them, so I ordered the PO 45m with black bezel with two extra links... Well it arrived yesterday after 3 weeks wait and low and behold it's the 42mm version .. Which on my 8.2 inch wrist looks tiny and I still need a bloody link for the other one.

Not a happy chap

And you should have no problems moving that 42mm one along I would think.

They sell like hot cakes in m2m. You might also get full price if you dont wear it.

Well the 42mm is starting to grow on me, still can't wait to wear my orange 45mm I ended up buying a gen link today, was only £45 with free del

Anyway a quick pic of the 42mm

I also got my QC pics of a cheapo speedmaster, as am currently considering buying the gen, but I want to live with one for a while to make sure I really like it first, low and behold it bracket says seamaster pics below

I think the 42mm looks fine. Better than the 45.5, but I never cared for the orange anyway.

The newer DJ2's and almost every watch from the BP factory will not have enough links to fit a wrist over 7 3/4" comfortably. Be aware of this. If you need links, I always keep some on hand for Rollies and Breitlings. Unfortunately don't have any for Omega. Just pm me

I'll keep that in mind BMW. As a guy with an 8.3 wrist i know that sourcing straps and extra links can be a real PITA. That said most rolllies and breitlings fit me perfectly with just a little fiddling with the micro adjustments.

Thanks BMW,

What I find so surprising is, why do dealers not sell links, surely picking up a few links from the suppliers wouldn't be too hard.. I mean ill happy pay an extra $20/25 for a link when ordering the watch
