The sitting on a piece of paper on foam method gave me 13cm, so I thought a 
B17 would work.

On the bike, I couldn't really tell which saddle felt right until I 
switched to a set of Barlow Pass tires. Marathons transmitted so much road 
noise, I couldn't tell the difference between crappy asphalt & and the 
wrong saddle.

I bought and tried several saddles until I figured this out.

Off the bike, what worked for me was placing a saddle on a foam pad on a 
chair and carefully lowering my butt till I could feel with my fingers just 
where my sit bones were.

Going through my collection of saddles showed me that I fit on a B67, and I 
just fit on a Berthoud Mente. The B17 was too narrow, even if I leaned 
forward as if I was riding in the drops.
