I have a Breitling Diver Pro 1 hard black rubber strap with "BREITLING" in large letters across the band. I inherited this from my deceased son so I don't know where or when the watch was purchased. This strap does not have the strap reference number "120S" stamped on the back. Does this mean that this strap is a replica? When did Breitling begin this strap reference system? You help would be greatly appreciated. prainey551

We really need to see photos to be able to comment, but it should have markings on hte back.

Does Breitling license others to produce replicas with the Breitling name? prainey551

I think that older DiverPros didn't have a ref#.

Looks real to me.
Could you post a close up of logo on the buckle?
