Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Breitling Galactic C71356L2.A712.408X?

The Breitling Galactic C71356L2.A712.408X has a lug width of 16mm. This is a slim measurement, typical of ladies' dress watches at this diameter, requiring straps from specialist artisan makers.

What is the best strap for the 32mm Breitling Galactic with mother-of-pearl dial?

For the 32mm Galactic with mother-of-pearl dial and rose gold and steel case, an alligator strap with Mississippiensis grain in champagne or dusty pink is the most harmonious pairing. Alternatively, a vegetable-tanned calfskin strap in cognac or burgundy develops character and patina over time.

How do you change the strap on a Breitling Galactic C71356L2.A712.408X?

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool to release the spring bars from the 16mm lugs. Work on a soft surface to avoid scratching the case. If in any doubt, consult a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier for professional fitting.

Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Breitling Galactic 16mm lug width?

Yes, quality aftermarket straps for 16mm lugs exist, though the selection is narrower than for standard widths. Milanostraps.it offers a curated range of artisan-made compatible straps, with a bespoke option available through the Casati Milano atelier.

How long does a leather strap last on a 32mm Breitling Galactic?

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on leather quality and frequency of wear. A high-grade alligator or calfskin strap, with regular but non-intensive use, typically lasts between two and four years. Casati Milano straps carry an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects and are crafted from carefully selected hides.
