Strap for Superocean II 36 White / Calf

The Breitling Superocean A17312D2A775199X has an 18mm lug width. This measurement is specific to the 36mm case variant of the Superocean family and should be verified using a digital calliper placed at the spring bar entry point, not at the widest part of the lug.

For the Superocean 36 with an 18mm lug width, a matte alligator or shell cordovan strap provides a refined pairing with the satin-finished steel case. For sporting or aquatic use, vulcanised rubber or technical nylon NATO straps are functional alternatives well-proportioned to the 36mm diameter.

The strap is replaced using a spring bar tool to release the 18mm spring bars from the lugs. It is advisable to work on a soft surface to avoid scratching the case. If in doubt, consult a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier.

Yes. Any standard 18mm strap is compatible with the Superocean A17312D2A775199X. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted leather, rubber and nylon straps sized specifically for this lug width, with finishes consistent with Breitling's diver aesthetic.

Longevity depends on the material and conditions of use. A vegetable-tanned alligator or shell cordovan strap, kept away from prolonged water exposure and excessive perspiration, can last between three and seven years while retaining its patina and structure. For a diver worn in water, rubber or NATO straps are inherently more resistant to moisture.
