Hi All. Anyone know where I can buy a rep AP Tang Buckle for an OEM AP Rubber strap for my ROO? I have the band and just need the buckle....I don't really want to buy another band with the buckle attached to it, but will if that's the only way. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Do these tang buckles fit on the straps that come on chrono models (the ones w deployant) because i think theyre a bit narrower than diver strap right?

I enquired 2 days ago and Ryan quoted me $98 + $25 ems shipping. Seriously, wtf was my first reaction.

Is this right chaps?? Is the buckle worth $98!

Ryan was offering a special for $70 for AP diver strap with buckle. he only had 2 and they were snapped up super fast. I sent an email asking for price for Diver 3.5 and extra diver buckle no strap) and was quote $98+$25.

I will buy it at some point - I got to really, but $98 is so much more than $35.

Can anyone vouch the for the quality of the 24mm diver Buckle? is it worth $98?

Ok chaps - I emailed Puretime. They quoted me today, $30 for buckle only. That's $30, which based on my previous quote is a bargain. Im defo gonna buy 2.

Just bear in mind, I asked that I will be buying a Swiss AP Diver at the same time.

I'm not sure what you were asking, but Ryan quoted and sold me just the buckle for $40 shipped. It was Rose Gold. So I know he sells the SS buckle , and it's not $98.

Hi BMW,

Here is the exact wording I used:

Enquiry I email:

Hi Ryan,

I got your details from RWI forum where I am a member.

I was interested in the following items and want to know if you have them in stock or you are confident you can source them upon payment:

Extra AP Diver Buckle
AP 3.5 Diver Rep

Thanks very much

Ryan's Response:
I don't have stock, need order from factory ,takes 3 working days.

$98 + $25 ems

Best Regards

Ryan

anyone that's interested, puretime delivered my diver buckle. it was wrapped like it contained a rep. imagine my disappointment that it only contained my buckle. And not someone else's misaddressed rep.

No its not $98 dollars. But he quoted me one for $45usd and $15 dollars for shipping! Grand total of $60 for just the buckle only! And I would say unless you was buying a load of watches. You will not get it any cheaper!
