Del 4,463 Posted August 19, 2013 I bought this genuine black/yellow rubberised calf strap and buckle from Strap Daddy on RWI (who sadly is no longer trading) to give me a different look to the s/s bracelet on my gen Breitling SuperOcean 44. The idea was to use it in the summer but I've had it for months and hadn't even tried it until tonight! It very nicely finished and the gen buckle is lovely but it's fairly thick at the lug ends so will take a bit of breaking in, especially to fit snugly around my puny 6.75" wrist! I snapped a few iPhone pics tonight as the light was fading but I'll try to take a few proper pics in better light at some point soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HWG 11 Posted August 19, 2013 looks good, Del! I would have considered that strap for the watch as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptainFantastic 509 Posted August 19, 2013 Nice look, Hazz sold me his gen strap in red a while back, same design as this one. It's on my superocean 42, and I know what you mean about breaking it in. That thick strap takes some time to get used to smaller wrists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,463 Posted August 19, 2013 Thanks! I prefer the s/s bracelet too (the gen bracelet is really nice) but this is great for a change. @ Corv - don't know the story about Strap Daddy. :dunno: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
