Oris Propilot bracelet question
I’ve been considering getting a bracelet for my Oris big crown propilot. I’ve contacted Oris directly to confirm if any half links come with the bracelet (Since it shows them in the product pic on their website) & they confirmed, “Yes, it will come as pictured”. But I’m still weary about it since I can’t find ANY picture or article online showing the existence of half links. Do any Propilot owners have a bracelet with half links or are they all full size?

Have you tried calling an AD?
They should know and they also can size it for you.
Good luck
Off topic but it looks great on the strap. I don't think I would bother with a bracelet.
Honest opinion. Try it on an Erika’s Original MN Strap. The Comfort is truly something. Looks great as well..

That'll be the next step. Just wanted to pick some brains here 1st before any calls.

Its a fantastic strap honestly. The adjustability of the "clamp" on the clasp is unrivaled. Albeit, a tad thick.

I'll check those out for sure. Thanks for the tip.
You're 100% right. On all my other pieces, I try to get the bracelet option. I would/ should have with this one but the price was too good to pass up (got it new for $750) so I bit the bullet & got this version. Even with a full price bracelet I, shouldn't be too far in.

Btw…Really nice watch !
I'm in the US. Luckily, around a very populated area so there are a few different AD's I can reach out to. Emailed one but got no response (yet). I think a few phone calls are in order for today though.
Rich, if you are still looking for an answer next week, I'll check mine. On a work trip at the moment.
If you're interested in a trade mine sits in the box, I've got the opposite problem, been wanting to buy the strap/clasp but just haven't pulled the trigger!
I've thought the same for my ProPilot but it's the PVD so I've just let it be the strap monster that it is... please post 📸 if you do pull the trigger
This IS my next watch. I will be getting it on the bracelet to begin with then start buying aftermarket straps.
I just got the day/date version of this watch. I wanted the strap specifically because it's a beautiful quality strap but most of all for the unique airplane seat belt-style clasp. Loving the watch.
Here's some photos of the bracelet that came with my propilot worldtimer (22mm lug). The links themselves are relatively small, but i dont believe there are any half links. 3 holes of micro adjust on the buckle as well.
Hope that helps. Never warmed up to the bracelet myself, but I'm more of a strap kinda guy I'm realizing.
The Watchmaker in Stoneham, MA, is a fantastic Oris service center. They also offer all the replacement straps/bracelets on their website. You could always ask them if they could help you with a possible solution if you don't find something you like on their website.

Actually they were the ones that I reached out to first and had received a response from yet lol. Their selection is the best I could find.

(781)438-6977. Ask for Dave (Dave Kurdzionak). He's the owner. I should be able to sort you out. If you still don't get it a satisfactory response, shoot me a DM, and I can drive there (5 min drive from my home) and ask.
