Excuse my ignorance, to brush the end links, it's as simple as just rubbing the sandpaper over their surface I take it?

Yes. Just make sure the edges (outer links) are well tapedoff. I used 2 layers of masking tape.
Also, make sure you sand it in one direction each time.

Has anyone tried the trilogy bracelet (sm300 in my case) on a fois? Or would that just not work for some obvious reason?!

This is a great solution. Did you consider getting the
Thanks! Here is a photo with better lighting.

It looks very similar to the new speedmaster 57 trilogy edition now.

Agreed that the center links needs to be brushed. I will give it a try and report back!

Brilliant solution.

Hi all,

Just want to share something that I found out recently.

l love the look of vintage flat link type bracelet on my speedy and my Broad Arrow, but came to the realization that I really need a bracelet with micro adjustment.

Long story short, I picked up a Railmaster 57 Trilogy bracelet from the bay, and a cheap flat link bracelet from Amazon for $40.

Here is the link:

As you know, the trilogy bracelet is 19mm and the Broad Arrow/Speedy has a 20mm lug width. So you will need to use the endlinks from the cheap bracelet, but they fit like a glove. No filing required!

I have attached some pictures.

It is a good fit, but the endlinks are all polished. I might get the center link brushed at some point.

Anyway, this is my first real post here. Hope someone finds this info useful. I had learnt a lot from this forum and just want to give something back.

Brilliant solution. Did you consider getting the Frostner flat links? They're pre-fabricated for the Speedmaster. I have a 3594 and am considering getting this set.
