I've been wearing my Avenger Skyland almost daily for close to 3 years! I have banged the strap up quite a bit over that span and now the clasp is starting to hang loose.

I like the strap I have now, but I don't know what it's called. It's polished stainless steel, which is what I want to stay with and the links are diagonal.

Also, what are my other options for a polished stainless steel band besides the one I have now? I'm assuming other Breitling straps fit this watch besides the one it came with.

Thanks all for your help!!

Matt

OK, well let's resolve a little confusion first. Straps generally mean leather or rubber, metal is the bracelet option. Your watch came with the Pro II bracelet and that is the only one designed to fit it, in fact you also need specific end links (132a). For straps you have any of the available ones - calf, croc, rubber, and more choices within those ranges, but it sounds like you want to stick to the bracelet.

Well if it is the original bracelet you like and want to stick with but it is badly beaten up then the solution is fairly simple.
Cape Cod polishing cloths and loads of elbow grease and it will look like new again.
Alternatively, take the bracelet to any half decent watch & jewelry shop and they should be able to make it look like new in no time at all
