Post subject: | Breitling Long Playing 815 Lug Width and Strap Suggestions |
Hi everyone, Does anyone know the correct lug width for a Breitling Long Playing 815. Multiple websites say different lug widths. Some say 18mm, some say 19mm, and one says 20mm (analogshift). Also any suggestions on a nice strap for these watches? I think black will look nice. |

https://bulangandsons.com/collections/s ... e=omnisend I think something like this would be nice. But would love second opinions. |

Hi Stainless steel or gold plated? The lug width is 19mm (slightly awkward size!). 18mm is a little loose, 19mm is snug. 20mm way too tight. Attachment: 815bi.jpg Attachment: 815ci.jpg Personally I like the vintage brown distressed look but straps are a very individual issue. Attachment: 815ai.jpg

all (I think) Top Time lugs are 19mm (815 not officially a Top Time, but you know what I mean). 810, 20xx, all 19mm |

19mm it is. Great! Thank you for the responses. Stainless steel. The distressed brown does look nice. Now that I know the lug width I can narrow my search. I don’t own the watch yet! Members of this forum have been kind enough to guide me through my search and a member even offered me one from his own collection. Donmenzies. You have 2 Breitling 815? That’s cool! Why does the one with the Brown strap have the words “swiss” and “made” cut off? Never seen that before. |
