Breitling Strap

[Bigrahizzle]

OK guys i have recently purchases this Breitlinmg Navitimer from swissreplicastore.com and i am really concerned about the strap. Is it supposed to stick out like it is. I mean the part the bends inward is too long and sticks out and makes real akward when i wear it. I can do anything about a return b/c i dont want to risk sending it back since the person i got it from isnt ne body from our dealer list. I am actually thinking about gtting a leather deployment sstrap to reolve this problem

bend the clasp to fit your wrist. that's what i did to mine and it is much better now.

Damn i would do that but wont it mess it up??? because the piece in the middle has to aslo be equal in bend to keep it nice when its folded.

bend them at the same time. the inner part of the clasp sticks out past the outer part. i grabbed both ends and bent it with the clasp in the closed position. i am at work now so i can post the pictures of mine but it worked fine. just don't try to bend them seperatly. you will never get them the same. if you go to far just bend it back. that's how i did mine and it made it much better.

i am not explaining this very well but remove the watch from your wrist and close the clasp. then grab both ends and bend it.

Man i cant get it to bend its too strong i have put all my strength into it but it wont budge. I even took the strap aprt to get a better grip but nothing.

Yeah, it's pretty tough stuff. You might consider your two biggest pairs of vice-grips, with the jaws thickly padded with rags. Bend it a little at a time, and check the fit often. Try to stay away from clamping near the end where the two sections join, with the cross rivet.

*A little advice here, if I may. Bending just the single one alone a tiny bit at a time adjusts how well the clasp closes.*

Hey dude. what i actually did was i took it apart from both sided and tried bending it but no luck. So what i did after that was i found a hard edge like a wall edge and placed it there and forced it. And Walla it worked now it perfectly fine. thatnks for you advice and also the other member above for the nice tips. Thank You both
