A couple folks have some real mileage with

 

Lange deployant buckles; there is a single fold and a butterfly double fold.

I believe there are 16&18 mm sizes.

I was fortunate to buy a.watch that came with one; otherwise like you said it is between 3-7k usd? Between gold and Pt? I also have a watch that others notorious claim is uncomfortable to wear due to its weight and I use a pin buckle. Maybe I don’t mind as I take the watch often to stare at the back?? 😀

Anyways, I enjoy both methods in wearing. Some say they like the extra weight to balance the heavy case, but perhaps I tend to wear my watch tight “enough” no slack and movement on the wrist that a pin buckle works well (again as long as the hole on the strap is in the right place).

One inconvenience for me when utilizing a deployant is storage and travel; watches with bracelets and deployant use cases that are much bulkier when traveling or storing; and if you like to travel with a couple of watches than it takes more space.

It does seem to be better for the strap so that’s a nice plus.
