Strap for Avenger B01 Chronograph 42 Stainless Steel / Blue / Strap

The lug width of the Breitling Avenger AB0146101C1X1 is 22mm. This measurement is taken by placing a millimetre ruler between the two lower lugs of the case, measuring the internal distance parallel to the spring bar pins. Respecting this value is essential for a precise fit and a proportionate appearance on the wrist.

For the Breitling Avenger AB0146101C1X1, the most suitable materials are vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather (ideal for daily wear and semi-formal settings), vulcanised rubber (for sports activities or humid environments), and ballistic nylon NATO straps for those who favour military aesthetics. For formal occasions, an alligator strap with a stainless steel deployant clasp represents the most prestigious option.

To replace the strap on the Avenger AB0146101C1X1, you will need a flat-blade screwdriver or a dedicated spring bar tool. Lever against the end of the compressed spring bar between the lugs, remove the strap, and insert the new one, ensuring the spring bar clicks securely into both lug holes. It is advisable to work on a soft surface to avoid scratching the case.

Yes, any strap with a 22mm lug width is technically compatible with the Breitling Avenger AB0146101C1X1. MilanoStraps offers a selection of handcrafted straps in leather, alligator, rubber and nylon in the correct size. It is important to verify that the strap has a straight (not curved) end to fit correctly to the Avenger case lugs.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the quality of the hide, maintenance and intensity of use. A handcrafted vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather strap, with daily use and regular care (nourishing cream every 2–3 months, protection from water), has an average lifespan of 2–4 years. MilanoStraps straps are covered by an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
