Consort Bracelet/Pringles Talk

Teaching my 2 & 3 year olds the "Pringles duck lips" has really been the highlight of parenthood so far!

I will add though that having 2 toddlers means fewer Pringles for me, so it's not all rainbows and butterflies.

Really nice showcase of the consort bracelet!
Thanks for taking the time to show us

I simply don’t buy Pringles as I’ll happily eat a tube in one sitting. This thread is not doing me any good as I am being reminded how good the salt and vinegar ones are.

ps - nice bracelet.

As it should be!

That’s good parenting!

Sorry, Rich, I’ll take the blame!

Can we talk about bracelets, you miserable people!

It's all good! I changed the title to include the added topic!

^^^^ Sour cream and onion are the only Pringles and should be eaten two at a time.

Back on the other topic in this thread.

@rkovars

You've said in another thread Rick that you used a 1.2mm screwdriver for the pins on the Consort bracelet.

A year or so ago I bought, and have used, 1.4mm screwdrivers on the twin screw C65 Aquitaine (Sealander) bracelet and more recently the single screw C60 Pro 300 bracelet.

If I get a Consort bracelet, will the 1.4mm work, or will I need to invest in a 1.2mm screwdriver?

It definitely will. 1.2 was the largest I had on hand. The screws are 1.4 mm in diameter measured with my calipers.

^^^^ Perfect, thanks.

You might have sold me on this bracelet.

Fantastic review Rich @rkovars

I may well get a Consort bracelet for Louise's C63 Lucerne 36mm LE as I think it will look fantastic on it.

Do it! I think the limited edition colors are PERFECT candidates for this bracelet!

Mine arrives tomorrow.

The first watch I intend to try it with is the Lucerne blue. Partly because the different style of bracelet will mean there will be even less chance of someone (at a distance) thinking it is an OP from my favourite brand.

The Jura green will likely stay on the existing bracelet and I expect to switch the Acer red between the two styles of bracelet.

I received my Consort bracelet on Tuesday and finally had a chance to try it on some watches late this evening.

I first tried it on my C63 GMT, but I think it gives the watch too much bling. The C63 GMT is a sports watch, not a dress watch, and the polished aspects of the bracelet felt too much. Here's an awful photo taken in horrendous artificial light:

And the underside:

I also held the bracelet up against my C63 Auto Hunter Green Ombré, but I could see the same problem there. There aren't enough polished aspects for the bracelet to match to. However, I think the bracelet will match well with the FLE when the time comes.

Finally, I tried it on my green C60 Trident Pro 300. It fits perfectly and for this watch I think it's quite a nice match, as there are more polished elements on the case plus a shiny bezel and dial for the bracelet to match to:
