Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Breitling Avenger A1337111/BC28/159S/A20S.1?
The lug width of the Breitling Avenger A1337111/BC28/159S/A20S.1 is 24mm. This is a specific measurement for the larger Avenger models (48mm case diameter), determined by the internal distance between the spring bar attachment points on the case. It is crucial to verify this specification before purchasing an aftermarket strap, as 22mm or 26mm straps will not fit correctly.
What type of strap is best suited for the Breitling Avenger A1337111/BC28/159S/A20S.1?
The Breitling Avenger is a professional and tactical timepiece, so strap selection depends on intended use. For aviation or formal contexts, we recommend vegetable-tanned leather straps in cognac brown, tobacco, or alligator leather in pearl grey or black. For marine environments or frequent humidity exposure, FKM rubber or Tropic rubber straps offer superior salt-water resistance. Shell cordovan provides an elegant middle ground, with superior density and a refined patina over time.
How do I change the strap on my Breitling Avenger A1337111/BC28/159S/A20S.1?
Strap replacement requires a spring bar removal tool. Position the flat end of the tool under the lug shoulder to compress the spring bar, then gently extract from one side. Repeat for the opposite lug. Align the new strap's holes with the spring bars, then compress the bars until you hear a click. Some original Breitling straps feature rigid lugs and require professional tooling for removal.
Is a 24mm aftermarket strap compatible with my Breitling Avenger A1337111/BC28/159S/A20S.1?
Yes, any strap with a 24mm lug width is mechanically compatible. However, consider the thickness and stiffness of the leather carefully: overly thick straps may not insert fully, while thin straps could create unwanted lateral play. Milano Straps' offerings are engineered with precise tolerances for the Breitling Avenger and include compatibility guarantees.
What is the average lifespan of a leather strap on a Breitling Avenger A1337111/BC28/159S/A20S.1?
Lifespan varies by material and usage patterns. A vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather strap typically lasts 3–5 years with daily wear, developing an attractive patina over time. Shell cordovan, owing to its density, may last 5–7 years. Rubber straps resist degradation for 4–6 years before UV effects become visible. Frequency of wear, sun exposure, and humidity are determining factors. Casati Milano provides an 18-month warranty on all bespoke straps.
