Strap for Galactic 32 Stainless Steel / Rose Gold / Trophy Black / Croco

The Breitling Galactic C71356L2.BA12.778P has a lug width of 16mm. This measurement should always be verified with a digital calliper, measuring the internal distance between the two lugs of the case before purchasing any replacement strap.

For the two-tone rose gold and steel Galactic, a glossy alligator leather strap in bordeaux or dark brown tones is the most coherent choice with the watch's precious aesthetic. Shell cordovan and vegetable-tanned calf leather are also excellent alternatives, both developing a beautiful patina over time.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool to remove the spring bars securing the strap to the lugs. It is advisable to have the operation carried out by a watchmaker or a specialist atelier to avoid scratching the case or damaging the lugs, particularly on a two-tone rose gold and steel case.

Yes. milanostraps.it offers a curated selection of aftermarket straps made specifically for the 16mm lug width, compatible with the Breitling Galactic. Each strap is handcrafted from selected materials — alligator, calf leather, shell cordovan or rubber — and can be customised at the Casati Milano atelier.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material, frequency of use and care. A high-quality alligator or shell cordovan strap, with regular use and proper maintenance (avoiding prolonged exposure to water and direct UV rays), can last between three and five years while retaining its structural and aesthetic integrity. Casati Milano offers an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
