Strap for Superocean 44 Special Blacksteel / Black / Rubber

The lug width of the Breitling Superocean M1739313.BE92.227S is 22mm. This measurement is taken internally between the two lugs using a digital calliper, or by checking the marking on the original strap. It is a standard size that ensures a wide availability of compatible aftermarket straps.

For the Superocean M1739313.BE92.227S with its 44mm ceramic and stainless steel case, the most suitable options are vegetable-tanned alligator for a formal and characterful pairing, box-grain calf leather for versatile daily wear, and vulcanised rubber for sporting and aquatic use. A steel deployant clasp is recommended with any material for enhanced wrist security.

The strap on the Superocean M1739313.BE92.227S is replaced via standard 22mm springbars. Using a springbar tool, compress the ends of the fixing pins inside the lugs and slide the strap free. The operation takes approximately two minutes and requires no specialist equipment, though it is advisable to have it carried out by a watchmaker or experienced strap fitter to avoid scratching the case.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends primarily on frequency of use and exposure to perspiration and moisture. On a dive watch such as the Superocean, used in marine environments or with frequent water contact, a quality handcrafted leather strap typically lasts 18 to 36 months with proper care. For intensive water use, it is advisable to alternate with a rubber strap. Milano Straps straps carry an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
