Breguet
Classique 8787BR/29/986— lug 20mm

The lug width of the Breguet Classique 8787BR/29/986 is 20mm. This is the internal distance between the two lugs of the case where the strap is inserted. To confirm the measurement on your specific watch, it is recommended to use a digital caliper before purchasing an aftermarket strap.

For a 36mm rose gold case with a guilloché dial, an alligator lisse or écailles strap represents the most coherent choice: the texture of the leather echoes the dial finishing and rose gold case. Box calf is the more understated alternative, developing a patina that improves over time. Recommended colors: cognac, tobacco, bordeaux, or English green.

The strap is removed using a 1mm forked spring bar tool, applying leverage on the spring bars inserted in the lugs. This operation requires care to avoid scratching the rose gold case: if you lack experience, it is preferable to consult a watchmaker or visit the Casati Milano atelier for strap fitting by appointment.

Yes. The Breguet Classique 8787BR/29/986 features a standard 20mm lug width, compatible with a wide range of artisanal aftermarket straps. Milano Straps offers a selection of 20mm straps in various materials and finishes, designed to fit aesthetically and dimensionally with this reference without any modifications to the case.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material, daily use, and care. A quality alligator strap, worn in rotation with others and kept away from moisture and perspiration, can last between three and five years. Calf leather has a slightly shorter lifespan but develops an appreciable patina. Casati Milano guarantees its straps for 18 months against manufacturing defects.
