Hi Guys!

Done my best to search if this has already been answered, but to no avail. Apologies if I am repeating an already answered question.

I have a 1999 Ti Emergency on ProI and wondered if the UTC module can be bought independently and if so is it an easy/straightforward fit?

Any idea of cost?

Thanks

You need a UTC bracelet (or at least links) bnewbie may know the code as I don't have that one.

UTCs come up every now and then, but teh Ti ones are rarer - not sure on current pricing for Ti - probably closer to $1,000 than $500.

The old UTC module certainly can be bought separately (although it needs it's own specific bracelet), but they have been discontinued for some so you won't find one from an AD. You will have to scour eBay for one. Occasionally they come up on here too, but people know they are both rare these days and desirable, so the price tends to be a little on the high side.

Alternatively you could source the Co-Pilot module that replaced the UTC, although that is digital instead of analogue, and is less desirable to a lot of people. However, you will at least be able to get hold of a new one from an AD. Not sure of the current cost - depends where you are in the world.

THe UTC bracelet for the M1 will fit this UTC module (Bracelet is the hardest bit) then you just need to buy the correct end link and swap it over.

Actually, the Jewelery Gallery by Macy's at Ala Moana mall in Honolulu is an AD and they have 3 or 4 UTC modules available. They also have a SS/gold 20mm Pilot Bracelet for the UTC.

I don't know which watches/sizes they fit and I think they are all 12 hr dials. SS or SS w/gold bezel. At least one is 20mm on the bracelet.
