Tag heuer carrera 41mm chrono cv2014 clasp issues?

[mattsheehan]

Hi, this is the clasp that came with my tag heuer Carrera 41mm chronograph CV2014.

It doesn't seem too close very well and leaves an ugly gap as seen.

and both the rubber and leather when can change size when clasp is closed so getting the right fit is almost impossible.







As you can see the gap is horrible.

Is this the way its supposed to be?

Would a genuine clasp fit better?

Has anyone got any pictures of a poorly fitting or nicely fitting clasp that they would like to share?

Regards

Matt

And so you can check you've got it set up correctly- looks like this when open...

No mate- standard rep- is yours different? Was tricky to adjust/set it at first tbh so I thought maybe the open pic might have helped you

Mines different. The leather and rubber strap are like a cock in a sock. with the clasp closed you can still adjust the strap size.

I have the same problem with my new Aquaracer: The clasp doesn't adjust well.

Maybe I am doing something wrong.

Your problem is very easy to fix; you have to buy a new clasp for leather straps (max 1mm). I had that probleem too. I bought a new clasp from China on ebay (linamarket) http://www.ebay.com/itm/18mm-20mm-N...h-Band-Buckle-Deployment-Clasp-/310763955976? and my problem was solved. When you have further questions, send me a PM !
