When getting my rose gold CdV

I purchased this double folding clasp: no trigger release and strap fixed with a screw (and no modification of the length of the strap needed). The newer version has a double trigger release and the strap is fixed with a regular pin, like on the normal pin buckle. Older version is very well done and discreet but you need a screw driver to fix or unfix the strap. The newer version is a little thicker with the trigger release, but it works like a pin buckle so it’s easy to fix or unfix the strap. Anyway, now I only use the regular pin buckle: simpler and gives easier access to the view of the case back. Best wishes and congratulations for your new acquisition.
