The original rubber strap is great, but the deployant is a pain on my wrist. I’m trying to get a standard pin buckle ordered so swapped out to this cordovan some years back and enjoying it a lot
The rubber strap will be back on. I’ve asked the AD to help me get something suitable and they’re scheduled to get back to me on Monday. Fingers crossed
I've never tried but always thought that the buckle of the original deployant could possibly be removed from the articulated parts and attached directly to the rubber strap. Looking at the buckle and the strap end, they seem to match. Maybe you can ask yo...
