Strap for Avenger II Seawolf Stainless Steel / Volcano Black / Rubber / Folding

The lug width of the Breitling Avenger A1733110/BC31/158S/A20SS.1 is 22mm. This measurement must be taken internally between the two lugs at their narrowest point, using a precision calliper or a millimetre ruler for an accurate result.

Given the 45mm technical and military character of this watch, the most suitable options are: vegetable-tanned alligator for formal wear, calf leather or barenia for everyday versatility, nylon NATO for fidelity to its aviatory origins, and vulcanised rubber for water-related or sporting activities. The strap width to observe is consistently 22mm.

Strap replacement requires a fine-tipped spring bar tool. Insert the tip into the lug slot, compress the spring bars and slide the strap free. Reassembly follows the reverse procedure. It is advisable to work on a soft surface to prevent scratches to the case and lugs.

Yes. Any strap with a 22mm lug width and appropriate keeper is compatible with this reference. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted 22mm straps in leather, NATO and rubber, all compatible with the Avenger A1733110/BC31/158S/A20SS.1 and produced in Italy using carefully selected materials.

Longevity depends on the leather type and conditions of use. A vegetable-tanned alligator strap, properly maintained, can last between three and seven years. Calf leather has an average lifespan of two to four years with daily wear. For humid environments or sporting use, rubber is recommended as it is unaffected by water and lasts considerably longer. Regular conditioning with a dedicated leather cream extends the life of any leather strap.
