Hello everyone,

I have a rep UPO and love it so much I am shopping around for a gen. I am wondering if my UPO bracelet will fit on a gen watch? Reason being is that the gen watch contains the rubber strap and I want to switch them off and on depending on how I would like to wear it.

Thanks!
Ed

I dont own a gen but I can say that the OP bracelets are pretty consistant from one to another..

I own two Panerai and are far from matching the first watch to bracelet link..
One is loose to watch the other is too close to case for spring bar to slide in..

Buy the $128 007 OP watch from watcheden.com and give it try I think it will fit..

I can tell you the two different bracelets from Narikaa's and Sead's are not interchangeable without some modification.

I know this doesn't answer your question but it leads me to believe the only way to tell is to try one.

I don't know if this helps, but I have a rep UPO with a Genuine rubber strap and the rubber strap fits easlily enough. I know Rubber can be manupilated whereas steel can't, but it fits nicely.

Alternatively, buy the gen with a metal strap and buy a Gen rubber one too (about £145GBP).
