I have my first vintage Breitling coming in the mail right now. I'm so excited I can't wait for it to get here to order a new band. What size band best fits the Chronomat 808?

Thanks

Congratualtions on the watch. 808, Nice. :lingsrock:

Just wondring if you should wait for it to arrive (not to put a damper on your excitment), as when its in your hands it might open up more possibilities for a strap replacement. Maybe not, but just a thought.

When I first clapped eyes on a 769, I changed my direction on the strap I wanted to fit almost immediately.

Whatever you chose, wear it in good health. Its a lovely watch. :wink:
