Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1?
The lug width of the Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1 is 24mm. This measurement represents the space between the case attachment terminals and is essential for selecting a compatible strap. 24mm is a specific and non-standard size, so you must select straps manufactured precisely for this width.
Which strap is best suited for the Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1?
For the RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1 in Red Gold, straps in natural alligator or vintage calf leather represent aesthetically coherent choices. Alligator, with its regular grain texture, mirrors the sporting elegance of the Navitimer, whilst aged calf develops a patina that dialogues harmoniously with the evolving colour of Red Gold. For daily wear, structured high-modulus rubber offers resistance and ergonomic comfort.
How do you change the strap on the Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1?
The Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1 features straight lugs with 24mm width. To change the strap, remove the watch from your wrist and locate the attachment pins (spring bars) beneath the case. Using a dedicated tool (spring bar tool), extract the pin, then remove the old strap and insert the new one. A specialist atelier like Casati Milano can provide expert guidance and personalised strap changes.
Which aftermarket strap is compatible with the Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1?
Any strap with a 24mm lug width is compatible with the RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1. The straps available on milanostraps.it include vegetable-tanned leather, alligator, shell cordovan and rubber.

What is the lifespan of a leather strap for the Breitling Navitimer RB031121/BG11/440X/R20D.1?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on material and usage. An alligator or vegetable-tanned calf strap, with proper maintenance (protection from excessive moisture, periodic cleaning), provides 3–5 years of daily wear. High-modulus rubber straps offer greater longevity, up to 7–10 years. Milano Straps artisanal straps include an 18-month warranty and support for maintenance and regeneration.
