Hi,

I've seen a used breitling (in attached picture) which meets all my requirements except it has a co-pilot module.

The watch has spare links on it, so is it possible to remove the module and replace it with the spare links ?

I would then sell the module on ebay or similar..

Stephen.

This is a good question. I do not know the answer. I think they are bracelet specific actually. Someone else will come along and answer for sure.

Assuming you can't simply shorten the bracelet, I would buy the whole thing and sell the co-pilot module for a bracelet without one. Might even make a buck :wink:

Not an expert on co-pilot, but I believe that the bracelet is different, so as Ian says, sell the co-pilot with bracelet and then buy a replacement bracelet.

Thanks for all your responses.

So am I correct in thinking that if I buy a new bracelet it will fit the main body of the watch (sorry for not using technical terms)? Ie the watch isn't modified to take the co pilot module

Regards,

Stephen

The bracelet on the co-pilot is I believe intregrated to the module.
