What I'm asked about the Breitling Vintage 1806 Iraqi

What strap size does the Breitling Vintage 1806 Iraqi take?

The Breitling Vintage 1806 Iraqi needs 24 mm between the lugs. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.

Can the strap on the Breitling Vintage 1806 Iraqi be changed?

Yes. It has spring bars between the lugs: with the right tool the strap comes off in a minute. If you'd rather not risk a scratch, I do it in the workshop.

Can I put a leather strap on the Breitling Vintage 1806 Iraqi?

Yes, in 24 mm leather. On a 49 mm chronograph I like box calf: it holds its shape and carries a substantial case.

Which strap do you recommend for the Breitling Vintage 1806 Iraqi?

A 24 mm box calf. You'll find it ready in the 24 mm collection. If you'd rather have something built on your wrist, the Casati atelier.
