Does anyone know if 22mm bracelet from Chronomat Evolution will fit on B1 or B2?

Both watches take straight end bracelets, the size is the same - can I assume that Pilot bracelet will fit to B1/2?

It might fit, but you can't assume that it will - it depends on the location of the springbar holes. I would want to try it before committing as it could have a gap between bracelet and watch or there could be insufficient room for the springbar to seat.

That's not too bad though Alan, it would be a close enough fit for me.

Yes, Admin confirmed a couple of years back that the Chronomat Evo bracelet on the B1 is just about the only bracelet switch that will fit pretty much perfectly.

I have in my 'notes' that a Chronomat bracelet will fit a B2. This info. came from this site but I don't have the reference link. Noted this when I was considering purchasing an older B2.

I am glad to hear that I can use Pilot bracelet on B1 or B2.

I like fit in Alan's post - that's close enough for me.

Thanks!
