I just picked up a 6.75 Speed......I know this takes the 24/20 bracelet size. I have a 24/20 buckle off my leather strap for my 48mm Navitimer GMT. I now want to buy the rubber strap for the 6.75. Will my buckle from the leather strap fit the rubber one, too? Or are they completely different? |

As far as I know, you should be able to transfer a tang buckle between the leather and rubber strap. But if you refer to deployant buckles, that will need a bit of customization. |

I'm not sure what the 6.75 rubber exactly looks like, but the pins on Breitling rubber tang buckles are a little larger (wider) than the pins on the leather tang buckles. In other words the holes in the rubber will be a litttle big for the leather pin tang but may still work OK. Not sure this is what your asking. |

Yep, you are right....I didn't even realize the clasp (non-Tang) looks different on the leather versus the leathers.....it's not even close. |
