Thread: Tropic and Rallye straps

  1. #1

    Tropic and Rallye straps

    I was considering selling my Breitling Chrono-Matic 44mm, but now having worn it for the last week on holiday in Japan, I have rather fallen in love with it again!

    It is on the Breitling bracelet, I also have the Breitling standard black leather strap.

    I am looking for some new strap options: 22mm rubber Tropic and leather Rallye straps. Black or possibly dark brown. Happy to pay a little more for something a little special.

    Please let me know your recommendations...

    I have a Dagaz Tropic strap which is very close to the original ones. I really like it. If it comes in 22mm i do not know.

    Glad you asked,I tried on a Oris 65 with a tropic type strap yesterday it was perfect.
    I was hoping to find something as good myself.

    I’ve got a 22mm tropic for sale here.

    I have to say though, the original vintage tropics are better; thinner and more textured. Mine is a watchgecko reissue. I have an actual vintage in 20 and it’s nicer.

    The watch gecko one is superb.

    Many thanks for the suggestions. I have ordered the Tropic from Gecko as well as a couple of their leather straps.
