Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509?
The lug width of the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509 is 22 mm. This measurement must be taken between the two lugs, flush against the case, using a digital calliper or a millimetre ruler to ensure accuracy before purchasing an aftermarket strap.
What is the best strap for the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509?
For the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509, a vegetable-tanned alligator strap is the most coherent choice, complementing the watch's refined character. A smooth or grained calf leather in warm tones suits everyday wear admirably, while a woven nylon NATO strap works well for casual or summer use.
How do you change the strap on the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509?
To replace the strap on the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509, use a spring bar tool to release the spring bars from the lugs.

Yes, there are many aftermarket straps in 22 mm compatible with the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509.

How long does a leather strap last on the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509?
The lifespan of a leather strap for the Breitling Montbrillant A2130012Q509 depends on the material and care applied.
