Alternative strap for the Breguet Transatlantique Type XII

Hi,
As much as I love this watch, I have to confess I am not a fan of the supplied raised strap covering the top and bottom fluting of the case.
For anyone who may be interested, these aftermarket straps are perhaps worth try as an inexpensive alternative?

When I had that watch I immediately took the OEM strap off and put one like yours on. With that being said my favorite way to wear that watch was on the bracelet. Breguet does an excellent job in that department. Wear yours well! Tony

This is the original strap for those not familiar with this model. Original strap ...  

I actually generally like straps that hug the case

They keep the strap at an angle which makes the watch slide less on my wrist. I also like how it looks, with no gaps. Can definitely understand your dislike in the case of the beautiful Breguet coin edge all around.

Interesting

The strap that came with my Type XX leaves a gap between it and the case and displays the fluting nicely. It appears to have much in common with the alternate you've chosen. ...  

Nice View

Your type XX looks very professional, I cannot imagine why Breguet deviated from this simple time tested design with the Transatlantique XXI? It would be wonderful to hear a comment from Breguet?
