Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Breitling Galactic A49350L2.BE58.425X?

The lug width of the Breitling Galactic A49350L2.BE58.425X is 20 mm. This measurement should be verified using a millimetre calliper directly between the case lugs, as the original strap may feature a bevelled edge that makes the actual width appear narrower.

What is the best strap for the Breitling Galactic A49350L2.BE58.425X?

For the Breitling Galactic A49350L2.BE58.425X, vegetable-tanned alligator straps are an ideal match for formal settings, complementing the brushed steel case finishing. For everyday or active use, grained calfskin or vulcanised rubber paired with a stainless steel deployant clasp offer technically sound and aesthetically coherent alternatives consistent with the model's dress-sport character.

Insert the tool into the spring bar slot, compress the spring and slide the strap out laterally. No specialist tools are needed, but care should be taken to avoid scratching the lugs.
