Oh, I like that! Is there an adjustment or much of one, or do you order by size?

Thanks guys!

 

There is a LITTLE bit of adjustment, maybe a centimeter, or a little less, so it has to be measured pretty closely. I had the original bracelet sized the way I liked it, took it off and measured from spring bar to spring bar - 16.5 cm. He made the first one 15.5, by mistake, was too tight and the adjustment wasn't enough to solve it, so he had to redo it.

 

It was definitely worth the wait though, and the price is right - $70 for a completely custom strap. The clasp was $35 from Julia (she was the only person who I found who would sell me just the clasp from Ocean Racer rubber strap). She shipped it to Bo and there it is - totally unique, I don' think there is another like it!

:lol:

Man, that is the only leather strap that I have ever seen on an SA that I like, and I like it a lot.

 

Well done!

Very nice indeedy mate. Not many bits of leather that suit a Briet IMO. That, however sure does!

You've got this watch making down to a fine art JG, the Breitling strap is totally awesome and the look when added to the dial is top draw.

yeah I like that Breitling a lot, I would just go with a Black dial and Black colored strap, but very nice.

The bracelet is just one thing I'm not thrilled about on the Super Avenger. Wish the bracelet was done differently. Your Strap is a big improvement.
