    Greetings all my first post!

    I have just taken posession of a Mark XVII Le Petit Prince, on bracelet!

    What I didn't know when I ordered it (and it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere) is that the bracelet is different to that fitted to the black dial version - it has polished inner links, unlike the black one which is all brushed.

    This got me thinking actually .. I used to have great fun when I had a 3706 Fliegerchronograph and 3251 UTC TZC, which used an identical bracelet (20mm lug width) - swapping between strap and bracelet options on both.

    I have already commissioned a matt dark blue aligator strap for the Mark XVIII (and I'm pondering picking up the correct dark brown santoni strap as well).

    But I was wondering - does the 20mm Mark XVIII bracelet fit any other current IWC models? (Which I could then pick up on strap and do some swapping around?)
