FAQ
What is the lug width of the Breitling AVI A17315101C1X4?
The Breitling AVI A17315101C1X4 has a lug width of 21mm. This measurement should be taken with a digital calliper at the narrowest point inside the lug, to ensure the strap fits correctly without stressing the spring bars.
What is the best strap for the Breitling AVI A17315101C1X4?
The best strap for the Breitling AVI A17315101C1X4 depends on the intended use. For a refined pairing, a vegetable-tanned alligator strap with classic or hornback grain complements the professional character of the watch.

Rest the watch face-down on a soft surface to avoid scratching the case or crystal. The operation is straightforward but requires care to avoid damaging the steel lugs.
