I'm about to buy my first Ling, a Colt Quartz II.

Only thing is that it's on rubber while I prefer steel.
So I was wondering which bracelets will fit.

I know it comes with the Professional II, but will any other 20mm bracelet fit?
Or are there any other options that I'm not aware of?

The Pro II is your option. It is a very nice bracelet.

As far as I know, yes. Bnewbie is the resident bracelet savant. Perhaps he will weigh in.

Yes.
Its original 812A brushed or 811A polished.

Thanks, then I know what to look for.

Or are there any good/affordable elsewhere on the web?

Tell the AD you want it on the bracelet. They will likely have it in about a week. AD margins on bracelets are less than watches so you will benefit from the reduction if you get it on the bracelet. Or pay an extra $500 and get a bracelet in addition to the strap.

Your options aren't limited to the configurations in the diplay case.

I found something else and wonder if it is another possibility...

ref 136A for Breitling Pro II bracelet. These end links will convert any 20mm Pro II bracelet to fit your Breitling Colt so long as it has 20mm between the lugs.

Is this right?

136A is for Colt GMT, I don't think that it will fit Colt Quartz II.
