mickeypro Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 So I got this swiss vaclumed steelfish that I usually wear with the beat up rep strap. I ordered an ostrich strap and sometimes feel like the strap takes away from the attention the watch should get (from me at least).... so as opposed to how Pams seem to be improved by the strap, are Breits just the opposite?

By-Tor Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 This is just my personal opinion: I simply don't like straps with ANY watches. PO with the rubber strap is an exception. And I have a general dilemma with Breitling: I don't like those polished bracelets, either. But SFSO with a brushed steel bracelet is pretty much perfect diver watch. I don't like it with a strap at all, although your white version is a little dressier... brown strap doesn't look "out place" on it, but personally I'd wear it only on a bracelet.

lanikai Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 The Strap will make or break the Piece .. I am patial to the leather strap with most of the Breitlings.. the genuines are hard to beat .. Andrew is the Breitling Purist .. nothing but genuine straps on his.. but they are worth the price .. IMO .. it's like wearing shoes that don't compliment the suit and pants.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 I'm with you Lani. I don't like any Breitling on a Band... Rolex = Band Breitling = Strap Panerai = Strap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babola Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 For that SFSO I'd go tan-croc or darker brown-croc, sorry but that ostrich strap is a bit out of place with that watch IMO. Too much information... if you know what I mean. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
