Breitling mesh strap

I just acquired a Breitling SuperOcean Heritage 57 w a leather strap. I thought it would be easy to track down a mesh bracelet, but I am having a hard time. Any advice?

Approach the friendly staff at your local Breitling Boutique or AD.

I purchased a mesh strap--or, as it's also known, Milanese---through an AD for a 38mm Transocean which came on a black leather strap originally. This was a couple of years ago. Extremely comfortable and elegant and transformed the watch, like getting a new watch. While I like the Transocean on the leather strap very much, the watch has been on that Milanese bracelet ever since.

Any AD should be able to order it for you. A Breitling boutique might be able to get it to you quicker since they might already have it in stock. Another option would be to call Breitling USA direct. They sell straps online so I’m sure they can sell you a bracelet.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I am going to wait on the arrival of the watch and see how the leather strap works for me. I may just leave as is, although that was one of the things I enjoyed most about Breitling is being able to so easily change straps and bracelets.
