Wow, that is more than anticipated.
I still reckon it would look great on the bracelet but, as expected, the cost is high for the upgrade which makes it difficult to justify. I also believe you are right in that the cost is indicative of the difficulty in making the bracelet from titanium. Thank you for updating though and if you change your mind please keep us posted, I may enquire with Switzerland as I’m likely going to be there soon.
AP Purists: Would the Titanium Montoya "work" on a AP titanium bracelet?
Hello fellow purists, I have long struggled to find the AP Royal Oak Offshore that will be my "keeper". As I have cycled through several of them, only one, the original Safari, was on a bracelet and I loved it. The problem was that it was not legible enou...
Yes, I do believe it will be awesome.
It will really put the focus on the bezel and the dial. The bracelet should include the attaching plots, so the unique ones mounted now will come off with the strap. So you won't need to worry about the mis-match. $5000? That part bothers me. Of course, I...
Great idea
I have the same watch Jim and have wondered the same thing about the bracelet. I think, and it sounds as though they can (for a price), if the AD will be able to order a bracelet to fit then it will look and feel awesome. Sure it’s a reasonable sum for th...
Ok! Today I have decided to do this — I think it will change the character of the watch and look amazing.
I will post updates on the project in this thread!
@Kmboxers I just got the quote from my AD in NYC -- with tax it is USD$7,065!!
After hearing that, I didn't ask for the part number -- but I will say that if you give them the reference number of the watch, they will be able to order it from Switzerland. Regardless of the intrinsic value of titanium, I believe it is much harder to c...

I have made the plunge for the Titanium Bracelet on this one. For me, the contrast with the strap, while part of the original design, is just too "busy".
The mix of materials and textures is too much in my opinion, what with the steel buckle, leather strap and the grid-like stitching. I believe that by eliminating this for titanium alone will bring the watch into a more usable aspect that will be more comf...
