Super Ocean Advice

[olic]

HI, I have decided to get a superocean heritage later this year (after wedding) I will buy on the ocean racer strap which I like.
However I do like bracelet watches, my local AD said I couldnt fit a different Breitling strap on it because of the size? its 24mm lugs (so the brochure says?)

I would like to put a professional Breitling bracelet on it and have bodged a quick pic using paint! (rubbish, but gives me an Idea)

Has anyone done this and what do you think? the strap is £300 from Breitling

Have you considered the mesh bracelet the SOH also comes on? Very cool and suits the watch, IMHO...

Not sure of the ins and outs of buying it with a different strap at the time, but I like your style with that strap. I can't stand the mesh strap on that watch, but love the watch itself.

I dont like the mesh strap at all I like the rubber strap has a lovely clasp.
I dont understand why it cant be fitted on a strap that is the same width?

I have been looking at divers, I like clean crisp dials the heritage is the cleanest ive seen

Breitling Pro 2 bracelet is 20 or 22mm at the lugs, IIRC. If the SOH is 24mm, that's going to be a very sloppy fit and it will annoy the snot out of you after a while.

Another vote for the mesh bracelet that is standard fit.

Very "heritage" - very cool

I got the Breitling brochure it says pro bracelet available in 24mm, guess no one has done it?

Really dont get the mesh strap at all? awful IMO
