FAQ
What is the lug width of the Breguet Tradition 7597BB/G1/9WU?
The Breguet Tradition 7597BB/G1/9WU is fitted with an 18mm lug width. It is advisable to verify the measurement with a digital caliper internally between the two lugs, at the narrowest point, before ordering a replacement strap.
What is the best strap for the Breguet Tradition 7597BB/G1/9WU?
Mississippi alligator leather in cognac or tobacco tone is the most coherent choice with the rose gold case and the formal vocation of the Tradition. Alternatively, smooth-polished calf leather in burgundy or dark brown offers superior comfort and develops a prized patina over time.
How do you change the strap on the Breguet Tradition 7597BB/G1/9WU?
The strap is replaced using a spring bar tool to remove the spring bars housed in the 18mm lugs. It is recommended to work on a soft surface and to rely on a watchmaker or specialized atelier to avoid scratches on the rose gold case.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Breguet Tradition 7597BB/G1/9WU?
Yes, several artisanal manufacturers produce 18mm aftermarket straps compatible with the Tradition 7597. Milano Straps offers both ready-made models online and custom straps with Casati Milano, with the possibility of shaping the tip to adapt to the specific curvature of the Breguet lugs.
How long does a leather strap last for the Breguet Tradition 7597BB/G1/9WU?
A high-quality alligator or calf leather strap, with regular use and proper maintenance — avoiding prolonged contact with water and sweat — has an average lifespan of 18-36 months. Casati Milano straps are covered by an 18-month warranty on manufacturing defects.
