There was a thread a little while back about whether different bracelets would fit different models - for example Admin said that the Chronomat pilot bracelet fits the old B-1 perfectly.

Anyway, I was just looking on eBay and there are a couple of Speed bracelets for sale, and I noticed that the end pieces (where it would attach to the case) are straight across and not curved to fit into the case contours. This got me thinking that maybe the speed bracelet would therefore fit all 24mm lug models - i.e. the SA, the World, and the SO Heritage 46. In fact the vendor actually states that the speed bracelet will fit the SA....

Personally I think the speed bracelet would look great on any of those watches (especially the SA and the Heritage), so I was wondering if anyone with a Bentley has tried it (or could try it) with any of these other models?

Driver8,

I was just thinking the same thing the other day. I'm sitting here with my Bentley and SA and it looks like the Speed bracelet would fit just fine on the SA. But I really like the way the Pro 2 looks on the SA and I don't have the tool to switch them back and forth right now.

I would like to know what is the best tool for bracelet removal (for cleaning or changing)? Anyone have one? Where do you get, and how much?

I was also thinking about changing the Pro 2 bracelet on my SA....its a pity they don't make the fighter bracelet with a 24mm lug as it is by far my favourite one!!
