Having found an 1170 bracelet, I need to find an extra link or two as well. As the main difference from the still available 1171 is the wider links at the end of the bracelet, I'm wondering if the 1171 spare links will slot into the 1170 too. The spare links go into the narrow end of the bracelet, which looks like it should be the same width on both.

Would it be completely futile for me to have another go at getting a sensible answer to my original post ?

 

Well there you go, giving a helpful answer again

 

Thanks. The 1170 is 16mm at the clasp with screw pins. I don't have an 1171, so was thinking of getting the modern links.

 

Hmm...sounds like it will be tricky.

It's looking like the best thing is for me to take it to the service centre, when I go to pick up my GMT from it's service, and see if they can help.
