Re: A Discontinued Model...
In Response To: Re: A Discontinued Model... ()

: The finish is the same on both models, but the
: difference is not just the clasp but the
: entire bracelet . As I said, the older model
: comes on the Bond bracelet while the newer
: model comes on the Speedmaster style
: bracelet.

: While some older models did use a Bond bracelet
: with a very small clasp that was designed to
: blend in with the bracelet, current Bond and
: Speedy bracelets use the same type of dual
: push button clasps with diver's extensions.
: The Bond's clasp is larger because the
: bracelet does not taper down as you reach
: the clasp. It remains 20mm in width
: throughout. The Speedy style bracelet is
: 20mm at the case and 18mm at the clasp.

So is the Bond style bracelet and clasp used on the 2534.50 the same as used on current Bond style Seamaster bracelets?
