The Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1, seen from the bench

The Breitling Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1 is the contemporary evolution of a legend born in the 1980s. Originally designed for military pilots and rescue units, this 48mm stainless steel chronograph features the Breitling caliber 13, an automatic COSC-certified movement with 42-hour power reserve. The case offers 300-meter water resistance with a domed sapphire crystal and transparent caseback. Lug width is 24mm, the standard for chronographs over 46mm diameter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Breitling Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1?

The Breitling Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1 features a 24mm lug width, the standard specification for 48mm chronographs. This dimension ensures correct proportional balance on wrists with a circumference between 17 and 20cm. To verify compatibility, measure the distance between the lateral spring bar holes: it should be between 23.9 and 24.1mm.

What is the best strap for the Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1?

The choice depends on your intended use and aesthetic preference. For formal elegance, grey or dark brown alligator maintains coherence with the watch's military heritage whilst developing a natural patina over time. For tactical daily wear, an FKM rubber strap on a stainless steel deployant clasp offers maximum reliability and durability. Natural cream-coloured calf leather provides a versatile compromise between aesthetics and practicality.

How do I change the strap on my Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1?

Use a spring bar tool: insert the tip into the lateral groove of the lug, push towards the watch case centre to compress the internal spring, then lever outward to extract the pin. Repeat on the opposite side. The replacement strap must have a 24mm lug width to fit perfectly on the original spring bars without forcing.

Can I use a non-Breitling aftermarket 24mm strap?

Absolutely. Any quality 24mm aftermarket strap with compatible spring bars is fully compatible and often offers superior aesthetic solutions. We recommend artisanal straps in alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, or FKM rubber: they guarantee construction quality rivalling OEM specifications whilst offering lower cost and customization options unavailable with official Breitling straps.

How long does a leather strap last on an Avenger A1337111/C871/205S/A20D.1?

Durability depends on wear patterns and material composition. Vegetable-tanned alligator, when properly maintained, resists structural failure for 5–8 years. Natural calf leather, being softer, typically lasts 3–5 years. FKM rubber has indefinite durability if protected from prolonged direct UV exposure (sunlight yellows the material). Leather conditioner and a protective storage case significantly extend the lifespan of any strap.
