Another arrival just in time for Christmas. This is by far the most comfortable rubber strap available.

This will be great in the summer!

Received my strap today directly from Breitling. As stated, nice packaging and the tool is nice too. At the reasonable pricing and free overnight shipping probably the best way to get an original strap. Tired of scouring the internet for the best price and hope it’s a genuine Breitling band.

So Breitling got back to me about the price difference and apparently when the site was launched, they forgot to charge for the buckles. Also, the spring bar took was only offered for free for the first few online orders and will now cost $25 going forward. I just looked and the rubber strap I ordered last year is back up to the $150 that I was charged last year for the strap and buckle.

So everyone can hate me now that you’ll have to pay for your buckles.

Just ordered a rubber ocean racer strap and am very pleased with the level of service Breitling has with these straps.

Shipped in less than 24 hours and with next day air, can't wait to put it on my Avenger

A real shame Breitling has not been able to roll this out for Germany yet. Unexplainable to me but ok. Need to wait some more

The best part is all the Jokers selling straps and buckles on ebay. There is a UK business seller who had the 257s (Avenger Hurricane OEM one) up at £225.When I pointed out to him the RRP from an Authorised store was £140, His reply was something along the lines of "Well if people are too stupid to check the prices before buying off me, That's their problem.
Hope most people do the sensible thing & check the AD prices 1st.

I was finally able to call in and order a Diver Pro III 152S rubber strap for my SuperOcean II 44. I love the way it fits on my wrist as opposed to the stainless steel bracelet that has never fit well no matter how it was adjusted. Honestly, I might end up selling the bracelet because I don’t think I’ll ever put it back on. The rubber strap also makes the watch look more sporty and more distinctively Breitling from a distance. I’m impressed with the thick cut of rubber and the thick steel on the buckle and tang. I also like how the emblem/logo on the buckle is raised up and slightly textured versus the logo on the bracelet clasp that’s just cheaply stamped into the metal. I also like how the big bold lettering on the rubber straps starts out raised up and slowly descends into the surface of the rubber as your eyes scan across the BREITLING letters. It’s the little touches that makes it that much more neat.

What is the blue strap that comes on the Exospace B55 called? I have been looking for one of those for a while and can't seem to find it.
