    Most likely a 1998/840. That's what Speedmasters in general came with at the time. As for 20/16 taper with friction buckle or 20/18 taper with pushbutton buckle, I am not sure.

    849 will definitely fit but I think that was slightly later?

    Alaska Project was 2008, and I recall seeing a few 2005 3570.50s with the 849 end link that was original.

    So that being said, probably 1998/849 lol

    Likely the pushbutton clasp as well, then, too!

    Push button 100%, as it was a 1998 bracelet, not 1498

    Ah, yes, you're right. Mine from 2000 came with the 1498 and I replaced it with the 1998. Since I traded that watch away, the details get fuzzy.
