The 1450-style bracelet, originating in the 1980s, is one of the most sought after vintage bracelets on the market, often dubbed the “holy grail” of watch bands.  It is substantial, extremely comfortable, and well-engineered.  With differently-sized rounded links extending all the way to the end piece, it has an unmistakably distinctive look. 

Forstner has faithfully recreated the 1450 bracelet, with some extra features for convenience and comfort, including solid end links, links removable by a single screw system, and Forstner's new quick adjust milled clasp for easy on-the-go sizing.  

• Solid 316L stainless steel, including solid steel end piece.
• Fully brushed finish.
• Links removable conveniently via a single-screw system.
• Milled push-button quick-adjust clasp (tool-free micro adjustment mechanism) with fully brushed finish.
