The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Here is a new Maratac strap that I thought would look good on my Seawolf. I picked one up from a seller in So California on Ebay which has just arrived after being dispatched on Saturday.

It starts life as a 24mm but gets notched down by the seller to 22mm, further notching down is required to fit the Seawolf due to the long lugs. I slightly over notched mine so I may pick up another at some point to be a bit more precise!

It looks and wears great!

Wow! perfect look for your Seawolf! With matching stitching to go with the face.
I love the nice, "wide" look. excelllent choice, suits the watch very well. I like how there is no taper in the strap from lug to end.
The notch issue might bug you after awhile, though, like you say because of the precision.
Cheers,
Carl

That looks amazing!

There is a strap I remember seeing like it: http://www.thewatchboys.com/breitling-style-rubber-texture-kevlar-look-with-yellow-stitch-p-92.html

Here is a couple more I have bookmarked:

Now that's pretty sweet looking! Great choice!
Sometimes a new strap is just as good as getting a whole new watch!
Congrats!

I think in comparison to the ones on thewatchboys.com website, the Maratac Elite is great value at $20.

The blurb says It's like leather, it's like nylon, it's like composite. A regular strap doesn't work wet. This works wet or dry. This is for the house, the car, the boat, the RV.

I've been wearing mine all afternoon around the house (house bound with a bad winter cold) and it's been very comfortable, when worn not too tight it works just like a Diver Pro were it grips your skin but it is much more comfortable.

I love the way the strap is the same width all the way along and I think the red stitch version would look fab on a Super Avenger Black Steel, I think you'd even get away with putting the black steel buckle on this strap as the pin and holes are similar in shape and size. I'm almost tempted to buy a SA BS just to go with the strap!

That one is cool too, and yes I agree it would look great on a BS.

What I like about the thick ones is in fact the thickness. It's made by a guy that makes mostly Panerai straps and you can tell. The Pannie guys have all the fun

I'm debating whether or not the black with red stitching would go well with my white baton dial Super Avenger, the red stitch highlighting the red on the dial?

It would be nice to see some pictures of that combination.

I was just deciding between a white stitching or red stitching for my black dial skyland The red would bring out the subtel red on the dial, but I really love the white stitching Breitling look.

That really is a great looking strap. Looks like they were made for each other. In the past I found it difficult to pull the plug on a strap that was not from the watch manufacturer but now there are so many excellent options out there it is tough to make a choice.
