Hello,
I saw a Navitimer for sale on E Bay on a leather strap and not sure if the strap will fit my wrist.
The strap length is 110mm X 90. My wrist is 8".
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Dominick

 

That's a fairly standard size strap. Do you have any other watches on leather straps? If so, you can measure the straps and judge for yourself. Ultimately, the price of a strap seems quite trivial compared to the value of that watch, so I'm not sure it's worth worrying about.

 

All my watches are on metal bracelets. Does Breitling make longer straps? I would prefer to have the Breitling strap but if it doesn't fit would need to buy an aftermarket strap.

 

I just checked my stash, and I have a Breitling strap with a tang buckle (if that's what you're talking about, as opposed to a deployant) that is 120-80 22mmx18mm. So it's 10mm longer than the one you are talking about. Black with white stitching. I don't know if it will fit your watch, but I have had it for a long time, and will probably never use it since my collection has moved away from Navitimers.

 

Sheesh, it looks like I also have a Breitling deployant clasp. Why did I buy these things?

 

The strap is 22mm X 18mm same as your tang buckle, the total length is the same 200mm (110+ 90) on a deployment strap.
Thanks for your help.

 

Right, sorry. Same length. You might want to contact a Breitling AD to see if they sell longer straps. They might.

 

I dont understand why you think the strap won't fit. I have an 8inch wrist too and think this should be ok.

The strap combined length is 200mm (8inch) and then you have 40mm+ of watch head to add on so total 240mm ish. Or 9.5 inches min.
You may not have much overlap but should just be ok

 

The lug to lug vertical distance of the watch head is 49mm for a total of 249mm = to 9.8 inches should fit.
Thank you everyone for your assistance.
