Congrats - beautiful piece  Depending on your wrist size, you may be able to combine these two (exact same strap, different lug width). They are very short, but adding the uts may give a great fit  (...measures are in the description - so grab a calculator  )'Watchbandcenter' is a very reliable vendor with scandinavian shipping (fast and cheap!) http://www.watch-band-center.com/watchstrap-p7623h204s668-Watch-band-Kajaani-X.html http://www.watch-band-center.com/watchstrap-p7608h204s206-Watch-band-Kajaani-X.html |

Looks fantastic! ...but it would be something else to be able to keep the uts on there too

Hi, I've just got a grey B1, I'm thinking the same thing as well - despite the fact that I'm not fortunate enough to have a UTC ... (lucky b%$%^!) I have been wondering how a brown croc would look, I've had mine on a black calf and a Diver Pro - just waiting for an Ocean Racer to appear. Cheers Ash |

Thanks in advance Toni(in Sweden) If you can't get OEM Breitling, your best option IMHO would be to get one custom made by someone like ABP-Paris - http://www.abp-paris.com/watchbands_cre ... id=7&cid=1 Super quailty and they will make it exactly to you specifcation. And you can choose from some excellent leather options. Frog skin maybe? Emu? Beaver tail??? |

The interlug on the B1 UTC is 19mm so be careful, the 20mm strap would have to be forced.

Hi Claus, The buckle on one appears to be 20mm and on the other 16mm - bit of slack there. Remember2 wrote: Congrats - beautiful piece

Hi, Great combo Breitling do sell an OEM strap for the B1 & UTC. It's about £90.00....but may have gone up as I bought mine a few months ago. Davey

I ordered a deploy for my BB+ a couple of months ago as well for 90. Had a call last week saying 150, got my refund sorted this morning and am looking at this ABP company. (you good Dave?) Damnfoolman wrote: Hi,
