New Braclet older watch

I am planing to buy the Omega AT in 41mm with horizontal strips. I really love watch. But i am Not sure about the braclet. So i thoght maybe i could by the the watch on the Rubber strap and buy the braclet of the shades models when they release those in 41mm. But the big question is will this ever Happen? If anybody owns the AT with horizontal strips how do you like the braclet or so you bought an aftermarket braclet?

I find the bracelet gets more hate on the Internet, than it deserves. It's a super comfortable, excellently made luxury bracelet and it looks the part.

People hate the polished middle links and the butterfly clasp. I have to say the butterfly clasp is actually really nice, WHEN you have the bracelet sized properly. No micro adjust, potentially annoying, but not the end of the world. And the polished middle links? I think they suit the watch very nicely and are different to the all brushed oysters 99% of watches out there have.

Not sure if the new bracelet is really that much better, the clasp is still the same and the midlinks are still polished. The links in the old one are flat, and that makes it really comfortable...

Just make sure to size it properly, it makes a huge difference 👍🏼

Thank you for your comment. I agree the braclet is graet. But i would love to have a bit more two dimensional middle links. Enjoy your AT.

Understandable. If You're going for the 41mm variant, there's loads of companies that make aftermarket bracelets fot that

I actually think that this is one of the best bracelets that Omega have. I'd get the watch on the bracelet as it's so much easier to buy other styles of strap that will fit the watch than it is to get alternative bracelet for it that fits & looks good.

I loved the bracelet on mine it’s really comfortable and silky to the skin it fitted perfectly and I never wanted to put it on anything else. If it’s anything like my Seamaster it needs a bracelet to properly balance the watch head. The aqua tera has the best crystal on any watch I’ve ever had it just disappears revealing the amazing dial hands and indices in their full glory
