Super OEM Breitling Croc strap on my vintage 1955 pre 806 V72 Navitimer

Got this well used Breitling OEM strap recently. Was just as I wanted it, nicely aged and full of vintage character and perfectly matched the watches patina.
I am very impressed with the build, quality and thickness of these Breitling straps, almost like wrapping a live croc round the wrist. Rest in pics!

stunning combo. The band has enough character to hold its own next to the head. Well done

That strap really does justice to the old Navitimer. If my memory serves, thats a manual winder, right? Beautiful!!
