The Breitling Watch Source Forums

So, how is it? I've been looking at their carbon fiber style straps, can't find them here but I was wondering if it was worth trying to get it from the US...

That looks wonderful, I have been thinking about putting a leather strap on my cockpit but baulk at the cost of a plain old calf strap from Breitling so this is very interesting!
Nice to see another new dial cockpit on the forum as well, we are a rare breed, I love your TT one!

Agreed Ian, we seem to be a rare breed, I also have an Airewolf and Skyland but tend to wear the Cockpit more these days. Either on a Croc, Lizard or plain leather strap.

I was inspired by your thread aso checked out panatime where I have got straps from before, they are great quality for the price! For the same price as a calf skin here in Canada I can get a hedly roma croc, mind they have some nice padded calf for only $39 and it looks very similar to the Breitling calf. I found that the quality of leather I that are on two of the straps I got from them to be equal in texture at least to the breitling, this stitching the same, I wonder if my AD would sell me just the buckle?

It's nice to have options. Makes your watch feel brand new

Thats new, the Liberty never had the wrap around stitch at the lug end before. Looks great.

I just received a couple BOB faux croc straps in the Breitling deployant style, really a nice quality strap for $35. (pssst, check the buy/sell )

I second the BOB straps. I like all their leather straps.. I have a couple o their Croco Grain leather straps, and they look great, but the problem with the lighter ones is that they still to me look obviously fake. I like the black and midnight blue ones the best.
