It is from the 45mm 50 Fathoms bracelet...

which has a newer, spring-secured clasp (see second image):







Having the -71 on my GMT Alarm myself, I can only substantiate your initial impression. The bracelet totally changes the character of your 2041. Its sturdy, very comfortable and a true beauty. The only thing I wished for would be an easy 'on the fly' micro-adjustment device. The diameter of my arm at least varies during the day, so its either too loose (on the morning) or too tight (on the evening). The higher the temperature, the larger the changes.

But this is just a small nit to pick.

Hope this helps!

Best,
Magnus

Considering to upgrade my steel GMT Alarm by an X-71 but my AD does not have it fitted on any watch. 1. Does the X-71 offer any system for easy adjustment of length - a similar function like the JLC bracelets? Or after the adjustment to the "correct" numb...

How does it compare in quality to the x-71? Can the x-71 be fitted on the 45mm FF? Thanks!

Hi, my picture shows an -71 bracelet on a 45 FF, so I do not understand your question. Or were you going to ask whether such a bracelet also exists for the simple 45mm FF? This and your question regarding quality is answered in Oliver's post in this threa... 

I agree too

X-71 has changed my GMT Alarm into a different watch. I can confirm it is absolutely pleasant to wear. The clasp which is in contact with the wrist in the form of a sort of rods (not surface) prosents no problem (no biting into the skin I was afraid of). ... 

Congrats ...
