Thx for reading my request post.

Hi my name is Mr. shim here. I subscribed just yesturday to get useful info ASAP.

Now I curious about a titanium version UTC module, however here in korea, it might not be possible to get it.

I never get any kind of infomation about UTC module here in korea, so plz if anyone has an extra UTC module for selling,

plz let me know. Im willing to purchase that item immediately.

Anyway, some info you must know is that my watch is Titanium seawolf 44mm. lug size is at 22mm.

-------------------
how to contact me is below

my KAKAO TALK ID is " starfront " if you know this phone messanger application.

or e-mail me at ttl_tla@naver.com , or
ttltla70@gmail.com.

either you can e-mail me or KAKAOTALK me.

additionally, if you want to talk with me in phone directly, you will be able to call me at 821044250145 (which is already including even national code as well )

Im living in kor, which means it might be harder to interact each other well without smart phone app.


hope to get some news positively sooner or later.






=========================================

if I got a wrong info,, plz somebody tell me what wrong idea were above.

Can an apart part UTC module itself be fitted at my original metal strap or leather strap( all 22mm lug size ) ?

if not, what I should purchase in right action?

if I was wrong, what would be the best solution?

Do I only have to buy whole UTC module bracelet or UTC module leather strap?

if I have to buy the full package, I want to buy them in necessary case.

if you have a ST version of UTC module in which adjust exactly 22mm lug as well, feel free to contact me.
the first concern is getting a titanium verson of UTC module, however if it might be harder, never mind having alternative any kind of UTC modules. all fine, fine.

only matter could be fitted at 22mm lug. thats all.

Hi Mr Shim.

You will need the following:

A Titanium 22mm E70176 UTC with bracelet for the Chrono Avenger M-1
The special Titanium Pro 1 Bracelet to fit the UTC will be needed. Your full size Pro 1 bracelet will not be able to be modified to fit the UTC. You will need the proper 889E bracelet.

If you can get an 885E UTC from a Chrono Avenger you will just have to change the end link where the bracelet fits the watch at the 12 o'clock. If you take the 880E end link off the Chrono Avenger bracelet and fit one of youe 888E endlinks from the Seawolf the bracelet will fit.

The problem link is the link that fits the bracelet to the UTC. That's why you need the special bracelet.

For the black dial Seawolf the full reference number is E7017610/B481 on an 889E Bracelet.

Hope this helps.

Good luck with your search.

Leather strap is a possibility. If you go in to your Authorised Dealer they will show you what's available for UTC.

Right Findo if you continue to post such envious and beautiful code yellow dials and UTC's i will have to report you to the green eye brigade, This is just not fair that one person can own or have owned such beauty's, i just get settled and bang up come's another eye busting picture.

Regards Mark

Dear Member,

I am amassed to see you have a UTC on a pro 1 bracelet as I tried to get one to fit my Seawolf and was told by Breitling UK it could not be done,
I even went as far as getting the UTC on a bracelet from Breitling sending it to Breitling service UK only for them to tell me it could not be fitted due to the different lug size.

May I pass your photos on to bretling for there comments

Kind reggards

Walter Wharton

Walter.

Not much to be amazed about really once you know the reasoning. BUK will not fit the UTC to the Seawolf as the nomenclature of the UTC is not intended for the Seawolf only the Chrono Avenger and Chrono Avenger M-1.

That being said, the Seawolf and Chrono Avenger M-1 have the same endlinks (888E) consequently the lug size is the same and of similar profile. If you look at Mr Shims picture of the Seawolf you will see that the UTC sits very close to the curve of the lug profile.

Image

Similarly if you look closely at my Chrono Avenger M-1 there is a very small mark on the top interhorn where the UTC just touched when fully laid against the interhorn lug.

Image

The best way to achieve things is sometimes to take the bull by the horns and do it yourself.

In the pictures you will see a Pro 2 with a UTC fitted. Breitling did sell this kit very briefly but discontinued it. However, having sussed how the original was made up, I ordered the parts from Breitling and adapted the link so it could be fitted to the south of the UTC.

In the same way that the B-1 and B-2 have the same profile and fitting of their bezels,
ImageImage
Breitling would never fit a B-2 bezel to a B-1 which is something I have wanted to attempt but never owned both those watches at the same time. Breitling - Grenchen told me in their letter that "For technical reasons(nomenclatures and spare parts management)" they could not do it. I should be feasable to carry out your request but as I say BUK would not do it as it would be against the manufacturers instructions. The furthest they will go would be to brush finish a polished watch or vice versa.

If you get hold of a bergeon spring bar tool you could attempt the fitting yourself although some UTC's (B-1) can be fiddly to fit.
