'57 flat link on a 3861?

Has anyone made this change? If so how's it looking? To me the 3861 with the'57 flat link is the perfect speedmaster (without ponying up $15k for a 321).

With a pic or two. The close up of the end links shows that its not exact, but that is so close it is not noticeable at IRL. As a comparison, the Rolex jubilee.

From my AD, I ordered the watch and bracelet at the same time. They installed it before they shipped to me.

Why doesn’t the 3861 come with the flat-link as a stock offering?

The current stock 3861bracelet will never look iconic.

Flat link from Forstner for about $185. I like it and use it some on my 1861.
