Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Breitling Galactic C49350L2.A706.724P?
The Breitling Galactic C49350L2.A706.724P has a lug width of 20mm, measured internally between the two case horns at the level of the first strap bar. All compatible 20mm straps are available at milanostraps.it.
What is the best strap for the Breitling Galactic with mother-of-pearl dial and steel-rose gold case?
For the Breitling Galactic with bi-colour steel and rose gold case and mother-of-pearl dial, an alligator strap in vegetable-tanned leather in tobacco or cognac tones provides the most coherent pairing: the belly grain frames the dial's complexity without competing with it. Shell cordovan is an equally refined alternative, developing a deep patina over time. For more active use, vulcanised rubber maintains technical coherence with the Caliber 49 movement.
How do you change the strap on the Breitling Galactic C49350L2.A706.724P?
The strap is removed using a spring bar tool, by pressing on the ends of the spring bars connecting the strap to the case lugs. The process takes approximately two minutes on a clean surface. If unfamiliar with the procedure, any watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier can perform the swap by appointment without risk of scratching the bi-colour case.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the 41mm Breitling Galactic?
Yes. The 41mm Breitling Galactic with a 20mm lug width is compatible with any aftermarket strap in 20mm, fitted with curved or straight ends depending on the lug profile. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted Italian straps in alligator, calf leather, shell cordovan and rubber, with matching buckles or deployant clasps in 18mm.
How long does a leather strap last on a Breitling Galactic worn daily?
A quality leather strap worn daily typically lasts between 18 and 36 months, depending on perspiration, water exposure and maintenance. Vegetable-tanned alligator, kept away from water and excessive heat, can last over three years while retaining its structure and colour. Shell cordovan is even more resistant to deformation. Milano Straps provides an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects on all its straps.
