Collection: Breitling Rubber Watch Strap

Yes. Every Breitling strap, deployant clasp, and buckle in this collection is a genuine OEM (original equipment manufacturer) product — the same parts sold at Breitling boutiques worldwide. These are not aftermarket replicas or third-party alternatives. Products are priced 25%+ below boutique retail prices because Gift of Time sources directly from OEM suppliers.

Both are genuine Breitling OEM rubber straps, but they are designed for different clasp types. The Diver Pro straps come paired with an OEM tang buckle included and are the standard replacement strap for most Breitling sport models. The Diver Pro III straps are sold without a buckle and are specifically designed to be used with a deployment clasp — the listing will always say "for Deployment Clasp." If you use a deployant, choose the Diver Pro III; if you use a tang buckle, choose the standard Diver Pro.

The strap width (20MM, 22MM, or 24MM) refers to the lug width — the gap between the case lugs where the strap attaches. To find yours, measure between the lugs with a ruler or caliper. As a general guide: 20MM fits smaller Breitling models; 22MM fits most standard sport models like the Superocean and Chronomat; 24MM fits larger 45MM+ case watches like the Avenger. The buckle end is always narrower than the lug end — for example, a 22MM strap tapers to 20MM at the buckle (listed as "22-20MM").

The Diver Pro rubber straps are compatible with a wide range of Breitling sport watches. The 22MM straps fit models including the Superocean, Chronomat, Avenger, Endurance, and Orbiter. The 24MM straps are designed for larger 45MM+ case watches. Always confirm your case size and lug width before ordering, or contact the store with your specific reference number for guidance.

PVD stands for Physical Vapor Deposition — a coating process that applies a hard, matte black finish to stainless steel. A PVD black tang buckle gives your watch a darker, sportier aesthetic compared to the polished or brushed silver finish of standard stainless steel buckles. Both are made from stainless steel underneath, so they're equally durable. The choice comes down to the look you want — black hardware pairs well with black or dark-colored straps for a blacked-out style.

Both are genuine Breitling OEM deployant clasps with the same locking mechanism and functionality. The difference is purely aesthetic: a polished clasp has a shiny, mirror-like finish, while a brushed clasp has a matte, satin texture. Polished clasps tend to suit dress-oriented Breitling models like the Navitimer, while brushed clasps complement sport and dive watches. Both options are available in 18MM and 20MM widths.

A Breitling deployant clasp is compatible with any strap that matches its width and is designed for deployment use. The clasp width (e.g., 20MM) must match the buckle end of your strap. Diver Pro III rubber straps are explicitly designed for deployment clasps. Standard Diver Pro straps (which come with a tang buckle) can physically attach to a deployant if the widths match, but Diver Pro III straps offer the correct fit and finish intended for deployant use.

Yes. The Ocean Racer is a distinct Breitling rubber strap line with a different surface texture and profile compared to the Diver Pro. Ocean Racer straps typically feature a more tactile, patterned grip surface and are designed for Breitling dive and sport models. They come with an OEM steel buckle included. Both are genuine OEM products — the choice depends on which strap was originally fitted to your watch or which texture and look you prefer.

The canvas deployant straps are a newer category in the collection — made from durable woven canvas material rather than rubber, available in colors like black, navy, brown, yellow, and green. They are designed to be used with a deployant clasp (clasp not included) and come in 22-20MM and 24-20MM widths. These suit Breitling owners looking for a more casual, fabric-based alternative to rubber. Canvas Straps are meant to be worn with the Navitimer Style Deployant Clasp (see listed in our active collection).

Yes. The collection includes standalone OEM Breitling buckles sold separately — including stainless steel tang pin buckles in 18MM and 20MM, a black PVD tang pin buckle in 20MM, and a matte black DLC deployant clasp. These are ideal if your existing strap is in good condition but the buckle is worn, or if you want to change the hardware finish. Make sure the buckle width matches the tail width of your strap (the narrower end), not the lug width.
