Re: 2055.80 vs. 2255.80 (bracelets, where?)

: What are the diffs. between these bracelets,
: other than the obvious cosmetic differences.

You gave no idea what kind of differences you are looking for, so I'm unsure where to start to answer you.

Both are great bracelets. The 2055's bracelet style has been in use since 1993. The 2255's bracelet is a slight modification of the popular Speedmaster bracelet, the most recent incarnation of which has been in use for several years.

: I have a small wrist -- not precise, but
: roughtly 6" with tape measure and no
: slack.

The 'classic' Seamster bracelet like on the 2055 can easily be sized down to a 6 inch wrist. I have a 6.5 inch wrist and still have two full and two half links left that could be removed!

I suspect the alternative bracelet on the 2255 is similarly sizable.
