Hi guys,

I currently have my GF Blackbird at my local watchsmith getting a COSC sellita sw200-1 installed and would really like a new strap to replace the nylon one it came with. Anyone got pics of something different to give me an idea as i'm not sure what would suit.

Seriously, GF Blackbird is a great rep and I've tried like 20 straps with it, finally I got the gen strap from Breitling and couldn't be happier.

You can get the nylon strap for around 150 eur or go with the rubber one which is much cheaper. Either way the watch will look very gen like. As you've already replaced the movement , I assume you will keep this rep, so IMO gen strap is the way to go.

The gen rubbers are very good. With pin buckle they are quite affordable. Any AD can order. Sometimes they even have some on stock!

I am not sure where OP is from, but I ordered it online and I think you can do it from most countries in EU.

Cheers guys im in the UK so ordering wont be a problem. I do have 2 gen rubber straps with deployant clasps as I do prefer them to buckles, so will try them first before I decide.
