Steelfish newbie strap question

I'd like to break my Breitling cherry and get the new steelfish and I have questions about the gen rubber dive strap that I see in everybodys pics. First, what is the lug size on the SO? Second, can I just walk into the AD and ask for a rubber dive strap without having to provide any proof of ownership? Thanks!

Lug width is 22mm.
Of course you can just walk in and buy the damn thing. Tell them its for your father or son or for a good friend...
If they ask you to bring the watch in for replacement, tell them you are a DIY. :D

Go to the Breiling site and check to see the closests AD in your zip code. Stay away from the Torneau stores and they will want to see the watch. Go to Mom and Pop places as they almost carry them in stock all the time. AD like the mall will likely have to order it but should still get it for you. When you go to change the strap make sure you have the right tools to do it otherwise it will be a PITA.

Good Luck.
