Hello, I am looking for the correct UTC module and bracelet for my B2. I have the white dial. If anyone has one for sale contact me via IM. Thank you for your time.

Hi Matt,

That's an interesting one.

I know the UTC/Bracelet for the B1 fits the B2 (same head) but, was the UTC specifically made for the B1 or for the B1 and the B2?
If the B1 only there was not a white dial so......

BN?

Yeah I'm not 100% on that one.. If they don't fit or even exist I figured someone would know here anyways. It's nothing I need to have so either way it's cool. I bought one on eBay but it was for an older Chronomat and the lug width is a little big for the UTC I bought. I'm gonna post it for sale here in a few days when I get back from vacation. It's on a tan leather OEM strap. Looks nice, I just have no use for it.

Matt it really is so much more complicated than just interlug.

Talk on pm if you would like rather than clog up your wtb

Al, you are right that the A70174 UTC was only intended for the B-1 and consequently there were only 5 UTC dials (none of them white) made for the B-1.

However I have seen a white dialed B-2 with a UTC. I can't find a pic of it but I recall seeing it on Chrono 24.com when I was looking for my Black dial B-2. Depending on whether Matt's B-2 is the early or later (spots) model, there are two white dials made for the 22mm A70177 UTC for the Chronomat Evoloution. The dials are the same size so a re-dial to white should be possible if required.

If Matt has the earlier "batton" dial B-2 with the very white dial, he would require the A439 dial. If it's the "creamier" (is that a word !!! :lol: ) later B-2 he would probably need the G207 dial.

I'll keep looking for the picture of the white B-2 & UTC

Gav, as with all things (your utc pro II M1 & the BB+) anything is possible given the time. Hope to see you @ Duxford 10 2013 upnort.

I preferred the look of the batons to the dots. IMO it matches the rest of the dial better.

I found a yellow dial UTC for my Emergency and Breitling Switzerland had a replacement Blue dial. Once fitted it was perfect. There's plenty of UTCs out there you just need patience...

Thanks for the heads up! I do have the one on my Chrono Avenger so that took care of that itch for a bit, at the moment I'm pricing out Navi Worlds, so that is going to hinder any other purchases for the meantime. It's good to know that they can change the dial though. Thanks again.
