| Post subject: | Breitling B-1 with UTC fighter bracelet |
Hi, I recently purchased this watch and it seems that the bracelet is too small for my wrist. I need to get a couple of links for it. I went through my local AD to contact Breitling but they stated they don’t have any because the band has been discontinued. Does anyone know where I can get a couple? I have contacted a couple of aftermarket sellers in e-bay and Etsy but they said their links would not fit my piece. I love this piece. It was the very first Breitling that I ever set eyes on. I don’t want to sell it because it doesn’t fit. Your help is greatly appreciated. Cheers! -Roam |

I don’t want to sell it because it doesn’t fit. Why not buy a full bracelet on eBay. Looking at one for about AU$1000, it has six removable links, so about $170 per link. I'm pretty sure that if Breitling did still have links they would be more expensive than that. You could hang onto the rest of the bracelet as spares, or dismantle it and sell the parts, offsetting your initial cost. |

I was thinking I would. Or have to spend that much to get it to wear it. |

Try contacting swisstime1884 on eBay UK, he seems to be able to source most links. |
