    I bought a 3570.40 at a watch show and a 1125 bracelet at a watch show in Dec. The bracket had straight end links but worked on the speedy. After reading up I was under the impression 560 end links would work. took forever to find and def over paid for them to come in. Today, I just tried them and they are too short. What I am I missing? are these not the proper end links? there is nothing stamped on them...

    I think I realized it. I was reading the FOIS threads ... is that watch 19mm because its no lug guards? Do i need the 633 end links? or another bracelet as well?

    ...You also need a 1171 bracelet, not a 1125 ;)

    No need to worry, you probably won't find it dificult to sell these again.

    I have the 1171 braclet and end links you need. Like new. Kinda.

    I think your setup might work with my ck2998?

    If so, let's talk.

    Not on this forum as you need to have 200 posts in order to sell something.

    1125 would work if the last links are near the size of the end links and lug width. 1125 is exactly the same in every way as 1171 including style, shape and period correctness (except the modern 1171). They were both available for different lug widths as well, so watch out for it or you may get a 1171 with too small last links.

    Both are not correct for modern Speedmasters anyways, so there's no point switching from one to the other.

    633 is preferable by many, but 677 works also.
