Yeah i see.

I could make it with a rubberized red painted edge, not red suede edge, that would be too much of a hassle.

If by something like this you mean double red stitch and red edges then yes, i can offer that in both saffiano or alcantara, or a plain black leather

Why would i do something that is already available and which is inferior to what i can offer.

I would choose saffiano over the perforated cat skin any day of the week.

Yep it's for diver buckle but fits a 42mm ROO.

OMG that's sexy. Is it for the diver buckle? I want one for my panda!

hi just thinking of what to order and wanted to clarify do your 42mm straps come with any plastic or metal inserts ?

also what size buckles fit these straps, 18mm or 24mm?

thanks :)

All of my AP straps come with inserts to ensure the best fit, and you could have seen by yourself in my works section that the fit is really top notch, without the inserts you cannot get that oem-ish fit.

I can make any option, 18 or 24 as you have seen.

For the order specific questions, the best would be either to pm me or email me smp1over at gmail.com. I would like to keep this thread 44mm ROO oriented

Any suggestions for a nice deployant for the 44mm ROO though?

After using many deployants in the past years, i find the tang buckles more comfy, so i'd recommend you to stay with the original buckle.

If you really want to go the deployant way then i'd recommend something in 20-22 mm size, but it is hard for me to recommend you something. Maybe someone could chime in with a nice one.

Straps UPDATE

My "dummy" 44 dlc should arrive in 7 to 10 days by my estimates. So the earliest i could start taking orders on 44mm straps is mid April.

Yes, I definitely prefer a deployant, I even changed the tang buckle of my gen RG watch to an aftermarket RG colored one. Much more comfortable as far as I am concerned, plus it's more safe and less abrasive to the strap, so any and all recommendations would be nice. :)
