Buckles have me in a Buckle

[D]

Like many of you here I have a skinny wrist.

I am having trouble buying straps lately.

I just sold a Toscana because the buckle felt it was blowing in the wind, but now it is obviously me, not the Toscana buckle style because I just got some Smat straps in and the buckle is about the same.

I don't have trouble with the stocker oem pre-v buckles or the mario paci buckles In fact I really like the MP buckle. Anyone know where I can an aftermarket buckle that is still big and beefy but has some contour or bend to it so it fits around my wrist and doesn't double as a weapon hangling off my wrist???

I can take pics if my gibberish doesn't make any sense to you (so much for my associates in english).

Or, try e-bay.

I recently picked up a couple of cheap 'n nasty straps for next to nothing... both have good stainless steel buckles, with "Panerai" engraving. The deal cost me far less than I would have paid for two non-engraved aftermarket buckles.

Yeah. I hate the "bottle-opener" pre-V buckle, too. But the sewn-in ones can be simple to remove. One I had on a Smat strap turned out to be nothing but plated brass. My junior hacksaw had it away in a second.

I used tin snips to get rid of my SMAT buckle.
