Can anyone point me to a quality company that makes OEM straps for Breitlings? What I am finding is Breitling straps starting at roughly 200 to 600. I would rather save my cash for another watch instead of spending that kind of cash on a leather strap.

I am not looking to spend 12.95 on a subpar strap. I am simply looking for some quality options to that price range.

Your advice is appreciated.

PS THIS IS FOR AN AVISTAR.

Well by definition if they are 3rd party they aren't OEM.

I'm moving this to the accessory section and you'll find quite a few quality 3rd party suppliers recommended there.

I love the quality I have gotten on my Stowa watches...
they make some in a simmular to Breitling style.

Croc ~$117 euro
Leather ~$50 euro

if you're patient, stake out the FS threads here (or in other forums) PLUS ebay and you might get lucky on some great deals. To date, the best snags I've had are: $50 shipped for an OEM leather strap (20/18mm) and $200 shipped for TWO STRAPS: an OEM 22/20 mm leather strap with tang buckle AND an OEM 22/20 CROCO leather strap with Breitling deployant clasp (yes, $200 for BOTH).
