Hi

Is it possible to buy the Diver pro strap with a black buckle/tang ie same as on the Blacksteel?

I don't like the shiny one on my new Seawolf - can't understand why Breitling did not make it with a titanium one to match the watch (maybe they do?).

Thank you for any answers.

That's a good point.. I wonder why Breitling never made a Titanium Tang Buckle... I guess it would cost more than it was worth.

I've often wondered why they don't make a titanium deployant either.....

I checked into that, because I have a Blacksteel. The suggestion was, that I can just order the rubber and put the black buckle on the new rubber parts. I never really got an answer as to whether or not the whole strap could be ordered, or even just the clasp. However, I do have a price list, which came with the Chronolog my AD gave me the other day, and the only Tang-type buckles listed are steel for $25. or gold ones at various prices. Same with the folding clasps, only the stainless clasp is $200. Perhaps you could check with your AD about having yours brushed, I know they can do that with the stainless steel bracelets. At least it won't be so shiny.
Cheers,
Carl
