fitting trident bracelet
I have a Ward bracelet that is from my C7 mk2 - now on a rubber strap. Anyway... trying to fit to my 43mm trident and.... given up.
Help..
1. There are some suggestions here that the spring bars need to be curved, is that the case? It's fiddly fitting to the C7 but do-able with straight ones.
2. Any other hints?
FWIW I've spring bar removal fork tools and usually have no issues flipping bracelets on my Breitling, Tag etc - so i ve a feeling I am missing something.

Re: fitting trident bracelet
The end links are completely different I'm afraid hence why it won't fit.

Re: fitting trident bracelet
I assume you can't buy the endlink anywhere?

Re: fitting trident bracelet
Emailed them. If not I ll probably move it on as I was hoping to flip between strap and bracelet. Less attractive just on the strap

Ah reading between the lines things less good now.Simmo wrote:Was a little while ago now as Wera (former head of customer services) was still there.
Any recommends as a contact - I only spoke to the lady answering the phone, she put me on hold and then in effect said 'they say no'.
I flagged that it had been mentioned here as a possiblity, but to be honest I might as well have been speaking Polish

Re: fitting trident bracelet
I was also given a resounding "no" when it came to buying just the end links fairly recently.
