Only way to go with the 42 is gen bracelet, they never made a 42 rep bracelet AFAIK - I'd try ebay or brietling source website but it's gonna be costly around 3-500 $ I've saw the pro2 with the x311 end sels on eBay a few times.

i had a 22mm PRO II bracelet once upon a time. it came on a superocean steelfish rep so it might be different.

That's awesome. How did you get that? Is it a rep of the correct bracelet or another bracelet for another Breitling?

 

Thanks

What about a Nato strap or a mesh? Anybody have any thoughts as to what could look good if a bracelet is not an option?

No mate it's the gen pro 2 bracelet that is an option on the 42 abyss fits well to the rep. I think mesh would be good too I've got the yellow abyss on the gen breitling leather also - both options can be found on the bay :-

No doubt in my mind that if you can find a gen Breitling bracelet that fits your keeper super rep you have found the killer combo. The gen bracelet will hold its value and the difference is usually far more than the rep - gen watch head difference.

I own a 42mm SuperOcean Abyss with blue rehaut.

A while back I bought a rep Pro II brushed stainless steel bracelet on M2M.

It was 22mm, but I shaved down the ends with sandpaper to fit the 20mm lugs.

Here's what it looks like now

The closest non-branded but made for Breitling I found was this (at $50) http://www.strappedfortime.com/shop/item.aspx/hadley-roma-stainless-steel-breitling-pilot-style-watch-band/107/ I also read that the curved Endlink would fit but never tried it out. Maybe You want to have a look. They have fine Breitling-style leatherbands at good prices too.

Old post but I have been looking at this one from ebay.

The deployment is not branded, but I have found rep deployments for about $20

 

Where did you find the clasp?

DON'T get the bracelet from the eBay auction. It's very poor quality and the end links do not even conform to the case shape (gaps).
