Breguet type xx aeronovale on rubber strap.

I'm getting my first timepiece and it's the Breguet type xx aeronovale 3800ST! I was just wondering what you guys think... How would it look on a rubber strap? I tried a breguet marine on a rubber strap at an AD and it just looked stunning. That's where the idea stems from..

Here is my Aeronavale #459 out 1000, it's e beautiful watch, the only complain I have that Breguet leather strap with its clasp is to thin for the size of this watch, even its 39mm it wears larger... ...  

Thank you [nt]

suffers from same clasp issue. The watch on its own is just perfect, logically an excuse to find a aviators strap

I agree [nt]

The watch itself is not big, 39mm, but the single folding deployant clasp is rather long and difficult to use (it is really hard to open and close). The strap itself it nice but a bit too long (at least to me anyway), even with the shortest adjustment. So...

Yes it's not big just perfect size, my wrist is bigger and I have big hands and stock strap is not good, as well it's too thin to support weight of the watch, it's the only turndown, since I can't really wear it because of that I was thinking of selling i...

I got the strap in a small store in Hong Kong. I don’t recall the name of the shop but it is inside Champagne Court in Kimberley Street, Tsim Sha Tsui. Note. The space between the spring bar and the case is very tight. You can’t just slide the NATO into t... 

Thank you David...

The problem is that I'm nyc, I'm having problem locating 21mm NATO online, I had my leather master made me aviator strap and I can't stand it, even that he did excellent work, just waste of money...

The 3803 is a superb watch!

I too had fitting issues with my Type XX and swap wearing it either with a NATO, which looks great, or a classic calf strap with a tang buckle. The presence of the Type XX is phenomenal and definitely a wearer's delight, as it flies under the radar. Enjoy...  

Stock strap is awful

Funny how a 25$ generic strap fits and looks better thans a manufacturers standard strap🤔 ...

Glad to join the group. Looking forward to learn more. Can't wait for my watch.

Welcome, Hiram!

Congratulations first and foremost on your Type XX! It is a phenomenal watch which you will enjoy profoundly. As for your intention of fitting a rubber strap to it, I would say it might not be the best look for the watch, but then again, I have never trie...  

Thanks Alejandro

I was never sure about this bezel... I like it on its own as a bezel... I find it a bit busy relative to the decades old classic dial... My 2c
