The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Thanks, everyone, for their input so far. I was not expecting such differing opinions (and adament ones, at that ). Everyone seems to have very valid points. Crap , and I am also guessing that I could not "test drive" the deployment given the custom fit/sizing, right?

Timebandit's input is interesting. What are the differences in stap types in terms of my questions? I am thinking of the standard leather strap, not the croc (too shiny/dressy for me), as well am thinking of a CSO (black face with black leather strap) if that has any bearing on this issue. I am less concerned over cost and more concerned about comfort, both short term and long term. I do like how the deployment hugs the wrist, as this works well on the steel bracelet I have on my Colt, but the steel is flexible and moves at each link, whereas the deploy on the leather would seem to make the leather more rigid like.

Any more input to make this decision "easier?

Thanks!
