President Bracelet 20mm, 904L Steel, 6 Finishes

The President is the bracelet that dresses a watch up without making it fragile. Three rows of solid, half-round links, the shape that has always been the dress bracelet rather than the sports one, cut to 20 mm for the Chrono Mod cases. Machined from 904L stainless steel, with screw-fixed links you can adjust yourself. Will it fit my watch? This bracelet is 20 mm at the lugs, the gap between the two horns where the bracelet meets the case. It fits three Chrono Mod models straight out of the box: Classic Date in 39 mm and 36 mm, DeptMaster and GMT. The Modena takes its own strap: its case needs a different end link. Wearing a Lady Date or a Classic Date 31 mm? Yours takes the President 17 mm. Not a Chrono Mod? Measure the gap between your lugs. If it is 20 mm and your case is round, this bracelet fits: the end links are hollowed into a concave crescent that sits flush against a round case instead of leaving a gap. Send us your model and we will confirm before you order. Three rows, and why they look different A Jubilee runs five rows of small links. The President runs three rows of domed ones, brushed on the outside and polished down the centre, each link curving up and catching the light along its length. The bracelet reads as a series of bright lines instead of a flat surface, and it sits heavier on the wrist. It is the construction that made this shape the dress bracelet. A clasp you do not see The clasp folds away under the links, so from above the bracelet reads as one unbroken run all the way round, with no cover plate sitting proud on top. The only thing that shows is the small round push-button that opens it. It closes flat against the wrist. 904L, and why it is on the page Most bracelets in this price range are 316L. This one is 904L, the grade the Swiss houses moved to because it resists corrosion and pitting far better, holds a polish longer and takes sweat, chlorine and salt without dulling. It is harder to machine, which is why few people use it, and it is the reason this bracelet still looks new after a summer of wear. Screw-fixed links, not pins Each link is held by a screw, not a friction pin. You resize it yourself with a small screwdriver, in a few minutes, and nothing shoots across the room. Pins loosen over time and get lost; screws do not. Six finishes Silver, Gold, Rose gold, Classic Black, and two two-tone options. The two-tone bracelets pair brushed steel outer rows with a polished gold or rose gold centre row, the way a factory two-tone bracelet is built, so the effect reads as construction rather than plating. Not sure which finish? Silver goes with everything and is the safe default. Gold Two Tone and Rose Gold Two Tone are the ones that change the watch the most for the least risk, because the steel outer rows keep them wearable. Classic Black is the one people buy for a second look.
