Still this. Decided to put on the US1035 while I search out an spare link for the 1171/1. I might even have one somewhere from when I bought the original parts. The US1035 is nice but I wish the first link after the end link was a reall full 19mm across (it's very close, I know) so that it could look a little better in the 20mm 1039 role. I almost bought a Forstner flat-link this morning but I don't want to mess around with the springy links even though I've heard they've proven better than the ones on their 1450 President. I love a Seamaster on a flat-link!
