Firstly I filed the sides of the end links a little to make it easier to change straps. I found it was slightly more difficult to put the Pro II on the SOH, especially pushing the spring bars in. I needed more 'space' to angle the bracelet to push the spring bars in.

Secondly the part of the bracelet that touches the watch (between the lugs) does not 'fit'. It 'flips' back and forth as it was not made for the SOH. I put a bit of clear based filling between the space and pressed them till dry. It's not permanent so it won't cause any damage and it can't be seen. It stops the end links from 'flipping' back and forth. Hope that makes sense.

Call me crazy but I kinda enjoyed the whole process of making it work.

The SOH 46 is one of the classiest watches in the Breitling lineup. I feel certain the SOH Chrono will be the same. The black is just awesome...


I agree 100% :lingsrock:

Not crazy - just enthusiastic!
