Was rumbling around in my watchbox, regretting that I sold(stupid stupid) the original bracelet for my 1808, got the idea to try my B01 bracelet on....

And to My VERY big surprise it fitted like a charm :mrgreen:

I think it works too, but it does seem to make it a little less standout - kinda blends with the look of more recent left hand crown chrono-matics to me.

If the watch had a high gloss case finish, as does the bracelet, it would be a better match imho.
