Good evening everybody,
I wrote from Italy and do appreciate this forum and its ideas and information
I recently got a Superocean A17040 fit with a Nato band but would like to add a more original band or bracelet.
I guess the right bracelet for it is the Pro I and kindly ask you where I can find one as I tried on several search engines but got no info.
An alternative can be a leather (or croco?) band but I kindly ask you if the original issue come with a normal buckle or a deplo one.
Many thanks for reading this post and for your attention.
Have a very nice evening.

Marcello

Welcome to BreitlingSource.

The original watch could be ordered with either the Pro bracelet, rubber, calf or croc straps with the leather on tang or deployant.

If you go with the Pro bracelet you need to make sure that you get the right code - the end links are different and designed for specific models. I don't have details of the code for this watch as it's too old.

Dears,
many thanks for your replies.
I take advantage of it to kindly ask for you can give me some info re a source where tryng to buy a Pro I with the righe end links bracelet.
Alternatively, how many deplo model are there suitable for my A17040? I mean, are there severe delpos in Breitling catalogue or only one?
Thanks again for your patience and competence.
Have a very nice Sunday.

Buy/Sell section or ebay is your best source.
Any tang or deployant strap with lug width of 20mm is suitable.

Thanks again but I would search for an original deplo bucklet.
Any ideas?
Best regards.

What do you mean with "an original deplo bucklet"?

Sorry for my being unprecise.
I mean a Breitling deplo buckled, not an aftermarket one or, at least an original calf band with original bucklet (can you confirm any 20mm lug band are ok for my 17040?).
Thanks again, regards.

Marcello

You can find it on ebay or Buy/Sell section on this forum.
Your SO has 20mm lugs width.
