The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I have a 1996 Colt that I bought on a trip to Switzerland eons ago. Still like the watch, however.... I had a Chronomat with the Rouleaux that was stolen. At the time, I said I didn't want to be reminded of the one that got yanked out of my locker, so I bought the Colt. While I like the Colt, what I miss most is the Rouleaux. Is it possible to get a Rouleaux fitted to a Colt? The watches appear to be about the same size.

It wasn't designed to fit, but it might work as the rouleaux bracelet had straight endlinks. The only safe way to know is by trying it which might be tough without committing the money to buy one. You may also have a tough time finding a rouleaux in 18mm, although from memory I think that they were produced. The chronomat one definitely won't fit, that had 20mm lugs.

The Chrono Cockpit/Sextant/Sirius all used an 18mm Rouleaux bracelet.

That's right - I thought that there was one produced. Thanks for prompting the memory.
