That one is probably the best Daytona rep currently available (in my opinion). Go for it!

SELs look good. However, the bracelet doesn't sit "right" - the first links are under the lugs instead of next to them. This is not how the gen is. You'll like the BP better after you've tried it!

Do you perhaps know which springbars are correct for BP? The ones i received with mine are very thin and wobbles like hell when attached to the case, and ofcourse the JF are too thick to go into the BP bracelet. :(

Cheers mate ;). I just dont understand why JF made this bracelet so cheap feeling and lightweight. Same as BP bracelet.

When i had the a7750 jf it felt so great and genlike. Really the bracelets are a huge dissapointment.

And some candy:

So the package containing my bp bracelet was opened by customs who either stole my spring bars or forgot to put them back inside the box... My luck. So my td is going to send me new spring bars but in the mean time I found some to use and they fit but they also make my end links wobble :(

These can work for now until I get the correct ones but do the BP spring bars wobble at all? Just how good is the fit?

I thought I read somewhere the gen is only 140g could that be? If that's the case there are the correct weight.

My 23j ceramic with JF bracelet is 143.8 g with 1 link removed and with the bp bracelet it is 139.6 g with 2 links removed.

* just FYI I have no clue why I needed to take 2 links off for the bp and then only 1 for the JF bc they are both supposed to be the same size bracelet lol

Perhaps youre right mate, but the bracelet feels cheap if you ask me. It feels a bit rattely btw. Seems like my minute hand is catching the chrono hand and making it stop.

Time for hand bending :(

I agree with you 100% gen. weight or not it does feel very cheap and rattely. Personally I like a heavy feeling bracelet on my wrist but unfortunately nothing can be done about that.

Soaking the bracelet in baby oil overnight does smooth it out and get rid of the noise. I highly recommend it!

The min. Hand is hitting the chrono hand?!? That's not good

The bracelet is that bad? The noob DSSD bracelet is gen in my opinion. Is it just JF or do all the factories make cheap Daytona bracelets?

Very weird. When adjusting with hand nothing hits it. But when its adjusting time itself it suddenly happens :(

I don't think it's bad it's just a bit light for my liking but like I said earlier I think it's technically gen weight.

I never had a dssd so I couldn't compare but having both JF and bp Daytona bracelets for weight they are about the same. It's just the sel that's better on the bp.

That's very odd. Maybe the hand just needs to be adjusted slightly for clearance if that's even possible?

Unfortunately I don't know much about the mechanical part of our hobby lol. The most I can do besides change a bracelet is swap a crystal on the APs that don't need a press lol.

With the 1.8mm spring pins the bracelet doesn't wobble and the fit should be spot on :)

I just asked my td to include a set with my order but I would think eBay would be fine as long you know for sure your getting 1.8mm
