This might be a dumb question, but I just got a new Diver Pro Strap from my AD. Does the buckel go at the 12 oclock position or at the 6 oclock postion? I am right handed and wear my watch on my left wrist.

Thank you.

doh u beat me

edited to add: The first Breitling I ever purchased at the dealer came with the strap installed backwards with the buckle at 6 ... I was new with watches at that time and I couldn't figure out why it was so hard to put on at first. :lol:

Ha!! I have a steel and a driver pro for my steelfish and actually got on here and looked at picture gallery and found a pic of it installed @ 12 oclock. I do not think that you are the first or last to have this question. It seems so obvious, until you struggle to get your bracelet off and then begin to install your diver.

I love the look of the strap. Will it fit an 8" wrist? :roll:

There is a real easy way to remember how to put the buckle (or strap or whatever you have disassembled):

Look at you dial. Now, when you rotate your wrist, you want the Breitling logo to be in the same orientation as on the dial. If you get the logo to be upside down, then you have got it wrong.
