Cheers Not gonna fit, and I personally would not want to spend the coin to get a strap that is not the proper fit. If you post a WTB thread you will most likely fins someone looking to unload the croc strap you are looking for. Good luck |

Cheers I've weaseled a 21 into a 20mm lug, but the was a relatively thin and pliable JLC or IWC strap. A 24mm Breitling strap will not fit a 22mm lug width. Have you considered the many strap makers who make "Breitling Style" straps? You can give Jeanna at stonecreekstraps a try. She will make on that comes with a bi-fold deploy or can make the pieces for the Breitling deploy. About $200. Or given that you have a higher end Breitling - Datora right? - just give the watch what it deserves - a nice new Breitling OEM strap. |

I agree...an OEM strap just feels right especially for such a good looking watch. The two tang crocs I have purchased through BSource users have come lightly used and been under $300, which is a bit easier to swallow than retail pricing. |
