| Post subject: | Colt Bracelets Ends |
Hi all Hope I have posted this in the correct place. I have a breitling Colt A17035. When I 1st got it I had a leather strap which is long gone. I would like to get a stainless steel bracelet. (I think I Need an 18mm one, is that right?) I have found an 18mm 821A but there are no end links with it? I think they are the link on each side of the watch. Does anyone know where I could get these from and how much they would be? I am in kent in the uk if that helps. Thanks all Bud |

Your watch has 18mm lugs: http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... e_160.html Sources for links include a dealer, Breitling UK, ebay, sellers on boards like this and watchuseek. |

The experts can chime in, but I think you need a Professional or Professional II bracelet. If the one you are looking at is the one on ebay UK, it looks like a Professional 2005 to me. viewtopic.php?f=12&t=32208 |

821a is a Pro I bracelet and I believe that it is now unavailable through ADs. You can't just look at bracelet width, the end links are unique to each model. 821a is for the Colt Quartz I believe, but I think that it is also the one for the Colt Auto of that era, they are virtually identical cases. I'm a bit confused about the statement that it's an 821a without endlinks though - the 821a markings are only on the end links, without them so does the seller just 'know' what bracelet it is?? I think that the only option now is to try a WTB ad here or to keep an eye on eBay. |

As I said, I have 821a identified as a Colt Quartz bracelet, but I think that it fits the auto as well - bnewbie will know for sure. WTB = Want to Buy. |

So maybe that bracelet on ebay UK is not the 821a? |

The original bracelet for A17035 is hollow end links ProI 820A. I have one almost mint with all links, willing to sale. Drop me a PM with your email for the photos, if you are interested. I can also sell you it's original blue Diver strap with a buckle, in a very good condition for a bargain. |
