The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi all

I just found this forum and this is my first post so go easy on a newb

I'm just about to purchase a CHRONOGRAPH 7104.3 to replace my omega speedmaster broad arrow which I'm bored of, and wanted to know if anyone could recommend a nice steel bracelet to match it?

As you can see from the image the original bracelet looks great but I doubt i will be able to find an original, what would be a good aftermarket equivalent (not bothered about make)
thanks

James

Welcome to BreitlingSource, and congrats on the imminent acquisition - it's a nice watch!

You are right that it will be very difficult to find the original bracelet, though they show up on eBay very occasionally.

I'm sorry, I can't help on aftermarket bracelets - I always go strap on older pieces, but another member may have some recommendations for bracelets.

thanks for this, just paid for it, it's from Old World, so it's NOS, very excited about it. I'm finally going back to breitling after a 2 year gap, I used to have a gold and steel chronomat but sold it as it was way too bling

Slightly concerned about the plexiglass I have to say having always owned saphire glass models, hope it's going to be rugged enough for daily use

Well you couldn't have bought it from a better place!

The plexiglass obviously isn't sapphire, and it will scratch over time, but they are easy to replace. Craig (chronodeco) may know whether you can find a sapphire crystal that will fit.

Great watch! You cannot go wrong with a NOS watch from that dealer.

I would recommend a vintage NSA bracelet. NSA (Novovit) was the original supplier for most of Breitling and Heuers bracelets in the 1960-70's. Used and NOS shown up on Ebay. This is very nice made, genuine vintage bracelets. They would look much nicer on your watch than a modern new one.

This seller has a lot of NOS NSA bracelets, but they are quite pricey. See link:

I have just put a NOS NSA bracelet on my vintage Breitling Sprint. I got it on Ebay for US 50.00 $
