You are Correct -- Bracelet Not from Calculator
In Response To: Beechcraft ()


the ebay listing would seem to be correct, to the best of my knowledge. Heuer made a series of Calculators with "Beechcraft" on the dial; probably sold or given away by the Beechcraft aircraft dealers.

Calculator came with at least two different styles of bracelet, but I don't think that this one is correct -- probably from a Kentucky or a Manhattan (though the ends on Manhattan are assymetrical, 20mm and 23mm). Seller says that bracelet is New Old Stock Heuer bracelet, but he doesn't say that it is from the Calculator. Man-oh-man, you got to read these ebay descriptions carefully.
