Assuming this is for the C60 you mentioned in your first post...

My advice would be to buy the watch on the bracelet, and order the Hybrid separately.

You are almost always going to make out better buying on bracelet. The bracelet will cost you 2x or more to buy it separately than if you did as Amor suggested.

As an aside, CW bracelets are very good. Definitely worth the money.

I think the only watch you might not ever want on a bracelet is a bronze, but even then CW do some bronze bracelets.

I always buy a watch on a bracelet and add a strap(s) later.
