Breguet
Marine 5517BB/Y2/5ZU— lug 22mm

The lug width of the Breguet Marine 5517BB/Y2/5ZU is 22mm. This is the internal distance between the two lugs on the case, which determines the width your strap must have at the attachment points to fit correctly.

To complement the white gold case and guilloché dial, a strap in midnight blue or burgundy alligator with a polished finish is the most coherent choice for the model's haute horlogerie character. For sporty or marine use, an FKM rubber strap takes full advantage of the 100-meter water resistance guaranteed by the case.

The strap is replaced using a dedicated spring bar tool or a small flat-head screwdriver to release the spring bars that hold the strap to the lugs. It is recommended to place the case on a watchmaker's cushion to avoid scratching the white gold. If uncertain, contact a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier.

Yes. Any strap with 22mm lugs and standard spring bars is technically compatible with the Breguet Marine 5517BB/Y2/5ZU. On Milano Straps you will find a selection of artisanal 22mm straps in alligator, calf leather, NATO, and rubber, designed to fit perfectly with the lugs of this reference.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on use and care: under normal conditions, a quality calf leather strap lasts 12 to 24 months, while well-maintained alligator can exceed 3 years. Casati Milano straps are covered by an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects. To extend their life, avoid prolonged contact with water and perspiration and rotate among multiple straps.
