I'm looking to buy an OEM brown calf leather strap. I know that there are different shades of brown available.
I'm after a light brown/tan strap, which one should I go for?

Any links or pictures showing the different types of brown straps would be much appreciated.

I don't have a picture, although the flag straps only come in one shade of brown. The croc straps come in different shades, and the lighter brown is called camel.

Actually calf comes in "brown" (darker) and "gold" (light to medium brown).

Croc comes in the same plus camel where camel is the lightest / yellowest of the three. Colours aren't exact matches but take a look at the 'Made to Measure' feature on the Breitling website to see all of the options.

My mistake, thanks.
