Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV?
The lug width of the Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV is 20mm. This is the measurement to verify between the two lugs of the case before purchasing an aftermarket strap. It is recommended to measure it with a digital caliper at the narrowest point of the lug to obtain the exact measurement.
What is the best strap for the Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV in white gold?
For a white gold case like the 5557BB/YS/5WV, a polished midnight blue or black alligator strap is the most fitting pairing with Haute Horlogerie. Smooth box-calf leather is an elegant and understated alternative, while quality artisanal vulcanized rubber respects the Marine's nautical vocation without compromising the metal's prestige.
How do you change the strap on the Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV?
The Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV is fitted with standard 20mm spring bars. Replacement requires a dedicated spring bar tool with a fine point, preferably with a forked head to avoid scratching the white gold lugs. It is recommended to work on a soft surface and, if in doubt, to consult a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV?
Yes. Aftermarket straps with straight 20mm attachment are compatible with the Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV. It is important to choose models with slightly tapered or straight ends, consistent with the geometry of the Breguet lugs. Milano Straps offers a selection of artisanal 20mm straps compatible with this model, available online or customizable at the Casati Milano atelier.
How long does a leather strap last on a Breguet Marine 5557BB/YS/5WV?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material and daily use. A quality artisanal alligator or calf leather strap, with regular maintenance and rotation with other straps, has an average life of 2-4 years. The 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects offered by Casati Milano protects your investment, while a natural patina that develops over time is a sign of genuine quality leather.
