I just bought a SuperOcean Heritage 46 with a rubber band. Is it hard to fit the band or am I better off going to a Breitling AD to have it fitted?

With the right tool - a Bergeon 6767F - it's dead easy to change the strap.

measure twice cut once....Thats what pops always told me.

When you do measure....Set the micro adjustment to the middle, so that you can account for swelling/shrinkage of the wrist.

Finally, and most importantly....Post some pics of a great watch

You can attach .jpg files up to 250k directly to the post, larger than that just follow these instructions - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=453
