Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Breitling Galactic A71356LA.A708.408X?

The Breitling Galactic A71356LA.A708.408X has a lug width of 16mm. This measurement is the binding parameter for selecting any replacement strap, whether original Breitling or aftermarket.

What is the best strap for the Breitling Galactic A71356LA.A708.408X?

For a 32mm stainless steel Galactic, a vegetable-tanned alligator or smooth calf leather strap is the most aesthetically coherent choice. Vulcanised rubber suits sporting use, whilst a NATO nylon strap is ideal for warmer months due to its lightness and breathability.

How do I change the strap on the Breitling Galactic A71356LA.A708.408X?

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool or flat-tipped instrument, inserted into the slot of the spring bar between the lug and the strap. It is advisable to rest the case on a soft cloth to avoid scratching the case. If in doubt, the operation can be carried out by Casati Milano atelier or a trusted watchmaker.

Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Breitling Galactic A71356LA.A708.408X?

Yes. Any strap with a standard 16mm attachment and spring bars is compatible. Milano Straps offers a selection of handcrafted 16mm straps verified for this model, available in leather, rubber and nylon, with contrasting or tone-on-tone stitching.

How long does a leather strap last on a Breitling Galactic A71356LA.A708.408X?

Longevity depends on the material and daily use. A quality calf leather strap typically lasts 18 to 24 months with regular wear. Vegetable-tanned alligator, thanks to the density of its fibres, can exceed 3 to 4 years if kept away from excessive moisture and perspiration. Milano Straps straps carry an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
