The Heritage
The strap for this watch is made to measure
On the Breitling Galactic the bracelet is drawn as part of the case: no catalogue strap will fit. In the atelier we take the measurements on the watch itself and build the strap on the piece — that is the work of Casati Milano.

How do I change the strap on a Breitling Galactic B71356L2.BA11.778P?
Changing the strap on the Breitling Galactic requires a fine-tipped springbar tool to remove the spring bars from the lugs. Insert the tip into the lateral slot of the bar, compress and slide the strap out. Care must be taken not to scratch the polished yellow gold surfaces of the case. If in doubt, it is advisable to consult a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier.
How long does a leather strap last on a Breitling Galactic?
The longevity of a leather strap depends on the quality of the hide, the craftsmanship and the conditions of use. A high-grade vegetable-tanned alligator strap, with moderate daily wear and kept away from water, maintains its structural integrity and appearance for 3 to 5 years. Calf leather typically lasts 2 to 3 years. Shell cordovan, owing to the density of its fibre structure, is the most durable among commonly used leathers. Milano Straps offers an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects.
