The Breitling Watch Source Forums

tried a new Milanaise bracelet on these; not so bad, really.

Not really my thing, but it does work. I prefer it paired with the white dial, although style wise it is obviously a little more along the era of the 806.

Yes was going to say, looks much better on the white for me.

I'm one of those in the minority who really likes this. I understand, more like a change of pace than a daily wearer, but with the white dial, very crisp an clean looking. With the vintage or a dark color, maybe less so but with that 806 I'm just mesmerized by how crisp and preserved that dial is. I have a little $29 dollar mesh I bought from Bill Shaine, I don't wear it often as my Headwind doesn't quite work with it like yours, Fred, but I still like it.

I like that mesh on the new Navi as well. Absolutely beautiful.

actually prefer it on the modern white Navi too - the Milanaise probably is the most comfortable strap I have ever worn; flexible and nicely adjustable.

And it is by far the cheapest strap or bracelet I have ever owned, was something like $8 including worldwide shipping
