The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I have contacted Andrew and he does not have any 22mm left. However, he is trying to locate one for me. I hope that he is successful.

Thanks for everyone's advice.

Well today was my lucky day. About two weeks ago Andrew located a Diver Pro for me. He shipped it on March 19th, it arrived in New York on the 23rd and it disappeared into the unknown. Well, today my doorbell rings and our postman has a parcel from Andrew for me. Yes, it was the Diver Pro band.

Thanks to Andrew for making my day.

I did compare the new one from Andrew to the one that broke which I purchased last year. I carefully compared both bands side by side and honestly I cannot see any difference on the rubber parts at all. The quality looks to be exactly the same. The only difference I could find was a very, very slight difference in the thickness of the lugs on underside of the buckle at the buckle end opposite the Breitling logo.

However when folding the earlier band back on itself, the old band does turn slightly white. The new band from Andrew does not change color at all when bending it back on itself. If the earlier band is counterfeit, appearance wise, you cannot tell.

Thanks to all who replied to my post. I took your advice and was able to finally get an authentic band. Hopefully this one will last a lot longer than the previous one.

The fake ones generally do look pretty good, you may notice some on the lines on the rear don't appear as crisp as they should be. The same can sometimes be said about the BREITLING letters if you look real close.

Still, glad you managed to get one, good ole AM I didn't realise they had gone obsolete so quickly
