Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Breitling Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1?
The lug width of the Breitling Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1 is 20mm. This measurement is taken with a digital calliper at the narrowest point between the two lugs on the inner side of the case. Accurate measurement of the lug width is essential when selecting compatible aftermarket straps to ensure a proper fit without play or interference.
What is the best strap for the Breitling Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1?
For the Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1, with its black ceramic bezel, a vegetable-tanned alligator strap offers the most coherent formal pairing. Hand-patinated calfskin suits versatile everyday wear, while a technical rubber strap is appropriate for sporting contexts. In all cases, a stainless steel deployant clasp is recommended to maintain visual symmetry with the case and extend the strap's lifespan.
How do you change the strap on the Breitling Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1?
To replace the strap on the Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1, a watchmaker's spring bar tool is sufficient. The straight lug geometry of this model makes it straightforward to remove the 20mm spring bars. Always work on a soft surface to prevent scratches on the case and ceramic bezel, which is particularly susceptible to damage from metal tools.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Breitling Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1?

On milanostraps.it you will find handcrafted options in alligator, calfskin, shell cordovan, NATO fabric and rubber, all fitted with 20mm spring bars. Ensure the strap ends are flat-profile, consistent with the straight lug geometry of the Super Chronomat.
How long does a leather strap last on a Breitling Super Chronomat A17356531C1S1?
