Strap for Galactic 41 Stainless Steel / Diamond / Sierra Silver / Sahara

The lug width of the Breitling Galactic A49350LA.G699.237X is 20mm. This measurement refers to the internal distance between the two lugs of the case and determines compatibility with aftermarket straps. To verify it, measure the distance between the two lugs at the spring bar insertion point using a calliper.

For the Breitling Galactic A49350LA.G699.237X, an alligator strap in vegetable-tanned leather with a steel buckle or deployant clasp offers the finest pairing, thanks to the contrast between the scaled grain and the 41mm brushed case. For everyday or sports use, a smooth calf leather or vulcanised rubber strap provides durability and comfort without compromising aesthetics.

To replace the strap on the Breitling Galactic A49350LA.G699.237X, the spring bars securing the strap to the case lugs must be removed. A bifurcated spring bar tool is used to compress the ends of the spring bars, releasing them from the lugs. It is advisable to carry out the operation on a soft surface to avoid scratching the case or crystal.
