I just bought a used SuperOcean Heritage 46 with both the mesh bracelet and the Ocean Racer deployment strap. Right now I have it on the mesh but I also love the strap. Question to owners with both bracelet and stap...how often do you change it up? I am not an expert in changing out the bracelet/strap but I did it once and it wasn't too bad! That being said this will not be a daily occurrence...I am thinking at most maybe weekly? Just curious what others did. Thanks! |

I've only had mine for a few days and have already changed between the bracelet and Pro Diver II about 4 or 5 times. Probably just the newness of it makes me go back and forth. I could see my self settling down to about 2 or 3 times per week until I get a new strap and then I'm sure it will ramp up again. lol. |

Basically never. I tend to have a clear idea of what I want each watch to look like when I initially buy it - either on a certain strap or on a bracelet - and I tend to stick with it. The only time I tend to change straps is when they wear out. In fact I can only think of one occasion where I tried a blue croco on my white SA for a while just for the hell of it, before going back to brown. The only other time I ever remove straps is if the watch is on leather/croco and I want to clean the head by submerging it. Other than that they stay put. The whole constant strap changing thing just passes me by to be honest. |

I'd probably change straps twice a week (among all of my watches, not per watch). |

As the mood takes me. Not that often with the B1 or the BB+ as the UTC modules are factors. |

Thanks guys. Of my four "higher end" watches, two of them (the SOH and the Oris) has both a bracelet and a strap. THe Oris is a Limited Edition so I left the strap in its plastic and do not plan on using it anytime soon. It would just be the SOH that I will switch back and forth. As I mentioned I have been wearing the bracelet exclusively so far. I think I will change to the strap on Friday and wear it like that for the weekend! |

Seems to be about each week for me. I have also gone the week day and weekend change. |

Once a week, i usually wear the rubber straps on Friday since its the casual day of the week and on the weekends, depending on the event or mood im in. |
