Hello everyone. I have been lurking and now excited to be posting. Great to see some interesting converstaions and great advice. My current Breitling is a Colt Auto, I know its the shallow end of the Breitling gene pool, but I love it. :lingsrock:

I will probably ask a ton of elementary questions, which I fully expect to be ridiculed for, but thats the fun of forums.

Anyway, howdy to all and I look forward to discussions, and here is my first question;

The lugs are 18mm, am i stuck with 18mm straps or will 20mm fit. Looking to pick up a rubber strap, any help would be fantastic.

Welcome cannedyams. It's great to have you here. A 20mm isn't going to fit into an 18mm space without some serious crowding. Won't work. Sorry. :(
