Hi everyone,
I just got my wife a turquoise dial Cockpit Chrono with diamond bezel (more pics to follow), and we had assumed that it would fit her wrist, since my Colt GMT fits her without any trouble. Although it is a different style bracelet, the Colt has a greater distance between lugs, I believe, meaning that the bracelet has to get even shorter than the Pilot bracelet on the Cockpit Chrono.
In any case, here is an image looking at the watch from the side before I sized it for her:

I took out one of the links on the right. One on the left was already removed. The problem now is that it is still ever so slightly too big for her, but I don't think I can take out any more links. There is one removable link on either side, and I have set the quick-adjust setting in the deployant to the smallest size. As far as I can tell there has to be one removable link on each side to connect the main part of the bracelet to the end-pieces that attach to the deployant. The end-pieces themselves do not appear to come apart. If they did, then I could do away with one of the regular removable links and life would be good.
So, two questions:
1) Is it possible to disassemble the end-pieces that attach to the deployant somehow? If so, I could attach one directly to the main bracelet without the need for a removable link inbetween.
2) Is it possible to purchase a smaller bracelet?? The bracelet number is C4806 and the end links are 361A.
Thanks!!

). Once the screw comes out of the bar, the bar can be slid out of the bracelet, allowing the center link pieces to be removed. For the Pilot bracelet, this is the two inner (but not the center) pieces. For the Pro bracelet, this is the central piece.
