My 243 Submersible on SS bracelet

I have always been a fan of watches with metal bracelets and I wanted to try one on my 243 V2. Of course there is no bracelet (that I'm aware of) that fits a 243, so I had to modify the end links on a bracelet from a Pam 299. After many hours of careful grinding with a dremel and hand sanding, I was able to shape the end links to fit. I think it turned out pretty good and compliments the chunky case of the 243 nicely!




Lume shot :D

Bravo, mate!!!
I did the same 2 years ago with a few of my PAMs.
Here's my Regatta 253.

Nice work! Really makes it look more dive watch like.
