Hi all,

Can someone please assist me in my search for a new Band. I want to change up my Chronomat Evolution. I am looking for a croco blue 22/20 band with the deployent clasp (?) below. Is this even possible to do ? A lot of the croc's I have seen have a different type of folding clasp I'm not sure if I'm going to like. But I love this one I have. Also, will this 22/20 fit my watch ? It looks like it will but never hurts to verify before dropping 700-800 on a watch band. Thanks all !

You need 22/20 for your Evo, but you can't use the clasp you have.

I don't want to use that particular clasp, I want to keep it on this watch, but I want to buy the same type for the croco.

You can't put that clasp on a croco strap, it has to be this type... http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Superb-Breitling ... ~60_35.JPG

Although an aftermarket croc could be made to fit that style clasp (as a custom piece).

What type - the leather or the Ocean Racer that you pictured? Lots of threads on both and general consensus is positive for both, leather deployant is just not ideal for very small wrists.

I love the Oceanracer and the deployant pictured. I'm not worried about the strap but more about the folding clasp if I will like it. I love the push button style I already have and wish that would fit on the croco one. Thanks for all your help!
