Bracers are stronger.
IIRC, Diana claimed a Doomsday clone (or was it Superman infected by a Doomsday virus or something?) would eventually break the bracers if they kept attacking it, but based on what the bracers have blocked, I find it doubtful. That said, potent enough attacks can still hurt Diana even though she's blocking due to the fact that the bracers don't absorb force.

Hasn't the Bracers been destroyed before?
So adamentium is "virtually indestructible" while the bracers are actually in "effectively indestructible."
Effectively sounds stronger then virtually imo..
I know they create a small forcefield around her but she still can get the crap knocked out of here even if she is blocking..
But since you brought up DD or clone or whatever.. Diane claimed that he could break them..I guess that makes him the only person strong enough to effectively break them?
"Diana's silver bracelets were created from the remains of Zeus's Aegis, itself an impenetrable shield formed from the goat Amaltheia, who wet-nursed the infant Zeus, thus providing the energy from which Olympus sprung. Zeus´s father Cronus splintered the shield, and Athena had Hephaestus forge the remains into a great prize to be awarded to the worthiest of all Amazons, their greatest worshipers. The bracelets are unbreakable, and Diana is swift enough to deflect bullets with them. Furthermore, When Diana crosses them to protect her from impact with larger projectiles as well as damage inflicted by explosions and collisions with hard surfaces, the bracelets generate a small energy shield. The Bracelets are even able to deflect Omega Beams (Darkseid's Omega Effect, Superman/Batman #13) and heat vision (Supergirl, Superman/Batman #9). During the destruction of Olympus following an attack by Darkseid, the bracelets were shown to be durable enough to even withstand a blast from the destructive energies of the gods which Diana had to direct."

Nothing to be ashamed of, superman is just that awesome.

Burden of proof is on you to prove that an alternate reality Diana is just as strong as her post crisis version.
Diana's bracers has withstand shit that makes Superman best hits look like nothing.

But wait, wonder woman had lasso of truth, JLA was the same as ever as seen when LOSV killed them in regular continuity and then revived by Lazarus pit, JSA was shown killed by LOSV, Green Arrow was the same, so was Deadman but somehow the bracers were not as powerful and wonder woman wasn't as strong because superman beat her, right? Convenient.

I took that as she thought she couldn't withstand the shockwaves of the blows. She probably didn't think they'd break, she just thought the impact would be a problem even without them breaking, and the panel does show a heavy shockwave coming out, and when they aren't crossed, that stuff'll travel around the bracers.

That was in an alternate timeline, and their performance was visibly lacking considering they've taken hits from full-strength no-hold back Superman, and the 'grief and rage given form Doomsday style' Superman (heck, mainWW's flesh took the hits from full-power Supes better than that timeline's bracers did!). Plus all the bigger stuff they've tanked without problem.
A lot of alt-timelines have weaker WWs for some reason (Wagner's Trinity had the breakable-lasso, for example).

The two are separate artifacts, so one can be altered without the other. She might've had generic Amazonian bracers like Donna Troy and her mother have, as opposed to the Aegis Shield of Zeus reworked into bracer form.
It'd still be a fairly low-showing for generic bracers, but obviously the normal enchanted ones can't claim the kind of stuff that the Aegis ones can, so it wouldn't be crazy-low.

Only Cronus can..
Btw, Cronus was a big villain in one of her arcs and her bracers didn't break then. So even for him it's no easy task! And/or the reforming possibly strengthened them.

Its a simple question...can they break other the Cronos himself breaking them or not?

Not that we know of. Nothing in canon, from CoIE to Flashpoint, every broke them.
We can assume there's some limit if things get massively strong enough but we have not seen that limit, and the bracers do have the best track record for an unbreakable material in comics.
