Mine keeps coming undone .....
Oct 30, 2010,17:28 PM
I have one of the Calatrava Cross deployants that I bought about 5 years ago .
It comes undone very easily and I constantly find myself having to close it again .
Personally , I'm sorry I didn't keep the original buckle as from my own experience
its a more secure connection , but perhaps mine i faulty , I may have the Dealer
check it out for me ...
Regards .

As I was considering getting a deployant, now I shall have to give it some more thought and maybe save myself some money!! LOL
Mine was changed.
