Strap for Superocean II 44 Stainless Steel / Black / Volcano Black / Rubber / Folding

The lug width of the Breitling Superocean A17392D71B1S2 is 22mm. This measurement is taken with a calliper between the two lugs at the six o'clock side, at the springbar seat. Any 22mm strap is geometrically compatible with this reference.

The ideal choice depends on intended use. For marine or sporting environments, a vulcanised rubber strap or ballistic nylon NATO offers water resistance and comfort. For everyday smart-casual wear, a vegetable-tanned calf leather or alligator strap with a deployant clasp complements the 44mm case proportions while preserving the tool-watch character of the model.

Strap replacement requires a dedicated springbar tool — either a lever-tip or fork-tip variant. Insert the tool into the lug channel, compress the springbar inward and slide the strap free. Repeat on the opposite lug. Fit the new strap by reversing the process. Exercise care to avoid scratching the stainless steel case and lugs during the operation.

Yes. Any strap with a 22mm attachment width is geometrically compatible with the Breitling Superocean A17392D71B1S2. Milano Straps offers a curated range of handcrafted 22mm straps in calf leather, alligator, NATO and rubber, produced with reinforced stitching and thickness profiles calibrated for Breitling lugs. Authorised service is not required for a strap change.

Longevity depends on leather quality, maintenance and exposure to moisture. A high-grade vegetable-tanned calf strap, kept away from submersion and conditioned periodically with a silicone-free cream, will typically last two to four years with daily wear. Alligator leather, owing to its scale structure which disperses moisture efficiently, generally outlasts smooth calf. For regular aquatic use, rubber or NATO straps are the appropriate choice.
