Strap for Navitimer Automatic 41 Automatic Stainless Steel / Rose Gold / Grey / Croco / Folding

The lug width of the Breitling Navitimer U17326211M1P2 is 22 mm. This measurement should be taken with a calliper between the two lugs of the case, at the point where the strap meets the lower bezel. Using a strap of exactly 22 mm is essential to ensure correct fitting and a clean, precise aesthetic.

For the Navitimer U17326211M1P2 in rose gold and stainless steel, the most suitable straps are alligator leather in tobacco, cognac or dark brown tones, which complement the warm hues of the rose gold. Alternatively, a vegetable-tanned calfskin develops a natural patina over time that pairs harmoniously with the two-tone case. For sport use, a vulcanised rubber strap in anthracite or black provides practicality without compromising the overall aesthetic.

Replacing the strap on the Breitling Navitimer U17326211M1P2 requires a spring bar tool to remove the spring bars connecting the strap to the 22 mm lugs. It is advisable to work on a soft surface to protect the rose gold and steel case. If this is your first time replacing the strap, it is recommended to consult a watchmaker or specialist atelier to avoid scratching the lugs.

Yes, there are many aftermarket straps compatible with the Breitling Navitimer U17326211M1P2, provided they have a lug width of 22 mm. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted straps in alligator, calfskin, NATO and rubber, available bespoke or as ready-to-wear options, with buckles and deployant clasps in steel or rose gold to match the two-tone case.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the quality of the tanning, frequency of wear and exposure to perspiration and moisture. A high-quality alligator or vegetable-tanned calfskin strap, maintained with periodic conditioning cream and rotated with other straps, can last between three and six years while retaining its structural integrity and appearance. Milano Straps straps carry an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects.
