C11 MSL - bracelet option?

Post by FloridaPhil »

Did CW ever sell a bracelet for the C11 MSL?

I found this one in the archive.

There was a braclet for the c11, not sure if it was mall specific though.

Here's a link to an old sales post picturing it.

I went for the Strapcode Super Engineer II, which in my view really suits the C11. Got it off Amazon I think, shipped from UK.

Officially it was only ever available for the Makaira, but obviously fits the MSL.

My MSL came with one. Sold it. Immediately regretted it :(

I replaced it with a Strapcode/MiLTAT Super Engineer II purchased through Amazon which, although heavier than the OEM, suits the watch well.

My what good taste you have 8)

I think the chamfered elements of the SuperEngII emulate the C11 case superbly.

Sorry to disappoint Guv. That's one strap / bracelet that I've not got, nor had.

I have currently got a 20mm Strapcode Miltat Super Engineer, which is an excellent bracelet if (as with all Super Engineers) a touch heavy.

I used to have this bracelet on my C11 MSL vintage, but I think it looks better on the C11 Chronograph....

I have an engineer bracelet for my Chrono, per the photo

I probably prefer it on the original black leather strap though which is what I have it on at the moment
