| Post subject: | Custom Leather Strap on Navitimer Heritage..Is it possible? |
I just picked up a Navitimer Hertitage Limited Edition. It has the integrated stainless braclet, but I had intentions of changing to a black leather strap with deployment. Being new to Breitling watches, I just learned that the integrated braclet can't be changed to a leather strap easily. Has anyone had a custom leather strap made to fit in place of the integrated bracelet? Any suggestions on who might be able to do it (CONUS)? |

Custom manufacturers can do it if they are prepared to cut the strap ends to what are essentially multiple lugs. I am going to move this to the accessory section and there are a number of aftermarket makers mentioned in the threads there. I know that ABP will do custom strap ends but I am sure others will too. |

I'm sure Jeanna at stonecreekstraps will too. Just give her precise measurements. I know she has done AP ROOS, B&R and some other odd straps. |

Thanks for the info. Apologies for posting in the wrong section. I'm going to try to get in touch with Stone Creek Straps to see if they can help me. Any other recommendations are appreciated. Also, if anyone has done this before, I'd love to see some pics. I searched the forum and found one thread where a guy said he was having a custom strap made, but he never followed up on whether it actually got done. |

I owned one for a bit, and looked into it. The strap maker I spoke with thought the nature of the intergated bracelet (multiple narrow connections at the lug) would not make it practical....but good luck with it! |
