Hello everyone,

I have a Navitimer Olympus model A19340 and would like to know if the 22mm aero/ocean classic bracelet will fit on this model. Seems the lug width is fine but for some reason Breitling wouldn't confirm it. Don't know if there's an angle there and found it suspicious to not give closure on that.

Any guidance is appreciated.

Best regards,

Bill

End links are usually unique to the case so I doubt that it will fit unless it has a perfectly straight end link (which that may have, I just don't recall and am away from home).

Thank you for the response. I believe the actual bracelet model # is 151A or 154A and is 22mm at the lugs tapering to 20mm at the clasp.

Found the following link for reference http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2262_420975126

Straight end links for a "classic" look as opposed to the navitimer bracelet that fits to the case.

Any new thoughts?

I think it will look great, however AW prices their bracelets and straps a bit higher than you'd expect to pay at an AD, but Ive bought from them for years not minding the small increase in price for the convenience of having an item in stock and next day shipping.

Matt,

Sooooooooooo does that mean it fits fine and nothing to worry about? Anybody care to share pics of Navitimer with this bracelet? I know I'm not the only Breitling fan that prefers this bracelet over the navitimer one.

Yes it will fit, just not like a curved end link flush against the case. I dont have any pics, but it will look like a mesh bracelet on a Super Ocean Heritage. The mm size is correct, the only thing that would make it not fit is the end link, but since the mesh doesn't sit flush it will work fine. I would love to see it when you have it all set up! :lingsrock:

Can not see a reason why it would not fit your Navi Olympus.
Here is my Navi 01 on a 151A from my Transocean Chrono.

Yes, with the straight end links you are OK. Only other potential issue would be room for the wider spring bar tube between the lug holes and the case and I am sure that there's enough room for that as with wessa's 01.

The 151A fits all my Breitlings with 22mm interhorn, so I'm sure it will fit the Navi Olympus too.
