As many of you know i am a die-hard RM fan like all of you guys in this section. Some of you may know my history before with creating custom (rep) pieces.
Off topic read: https://forum.replica-watch.info/threads/the-stuvetjee-dc-project.7240713/

I was talking one day with my Chinese friend, which i know for years in this industry which shares the same passion as me. Only difference him being located in the biggest candyshop in the world (China).

I was talking with him how good the RM reps have become, but no one seems to put out the amazing straps RM provides. Yes, we can take some extra straps from the factory, but nowhere near the ideas we had. So thats when begin to start investigating on how to make our own straps. He knew some good strap factories, but none who ticked our boxes.

Then in the end he stumbled upon a factory who makes straps for some swiss (micro)brands and we got into talks. After that, things went on a speedtrain. We developed our own titanium endplots which would fit the above title watches, including gen-spec. We had molds being made without 100% knowing it would all fit together, but thanks to the factory and their experience they ended up making it perfect. The straps are made from the same material as gen, and is currently being imported by them.

Some production explaining:

Can do for sure in the future! Easy job, get a flat screwdriver between crown and rubber and pry it out. Make sure not to press too hard. You will damage the stock rubber crown :)

WOW!! Just wow brother, you have done an amazing job. Do you reckon this may fit my RMF factory produced RM021?

Thank you bro!! Uhm let me have a look, as RMF usuall have bigger screws etc. might have to mod the holes bigger. Do you have a picture of the strap dissembled?

Hard to tell for spot on as I don't have a digital caliper. Using a traditional method, 14mm I measure it as.

Strap is 9mm thick at the case and the mid case is about 6mm
best to PM me about it bro, well take it chats.

yeah, offering drivers that actually fit, and good clasps would be nice.
Currently working on screwdrivers yes, but its hard finding the right ones. Sure 2.30 is correct, but alot of times the 4 prong opening is too small to fit genspec/rep screws.
