    Hi folks - I'm loving my 1171 bracelet on my Speedy - I have the 633 end links but wanted to the try the 808 end links and the 1450.

    Which watch have you got? It won't fit on a modern speedy. I've had 3, I sold one on eBay, another to a forum member and the one I have left is my daily wearer. It's hard to find but it can be done.

    Nope, the end-links don't fit the case. I had the same dilemma and I ended up selling the modern speedy and got a vintage one instead. I also gained some nice patina :thumbsup:

    Nothing. I took it off my Apollo 11 and put it on my Moon to Mars. Perhaps the spring bars may be thinner?

    I'm not sure what "modern" is, but my 1450/808 has fit well on Speedmasters from 1982 through 1991. Thin springbars may indeed be necessary.
