Strap for MB II Anthracite White Dial

The Bremont Martin-Baker MBIIAn-WH features a lug width of 22mm, a standard measurement for military and sports chronographs. This specification ensures compatibility with a wide range of high-quality aftermarket straps, from natural leather to polyamide NATO bands.

Selection depends on intended use. For formal settings, alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather in cognac brown accentuates elegance. For tactical deployment, khaki or black NATO maintains the avionic character. For humid environments, FKM rubber is the most reliable choice. At Milano Straps, you can select from dozens of 22mm configurations, customisable in colour and buckle type.

Position the watch on a flat surface with the strap facing upward. Locate the two spring bars (metal lugs) holding the strap to the case. Using a spring bar tool or small lever, press the internal metal button to release the mechanism. Remove the old strap end, then insert the new one, ensuring perfect alignment with both spring bars and confirming they click into position. The operation requires less than one minute once technique is mastered.

Yes, entirely. The standard 22mm lug width of the MBIIAn-WH is compatible with any strap of the same measurement. Straps in leather, exotic hides (alligator, shell cordovan), NATO, rubber, Cordura and hybrid materials are all available from specialist retailers such as Milano Straps. Simply ensure the strap width at the lugs measures exactly 22mm.

Longevity depends on material and usage patterns. A vegetable-tanned calf strap typically lasts 4–6 years with routine maintenance (damp cloth cleaning, air drying). Exotic leathers such as alligator or shell cordovan can exceed 10 years. Polyamide NATO bands resist 8–12 years of wear. FKM rubber lasts 5–7 years before hardening. Rotating between multiple straps significantly extends the lifespan of each.
