5167a on green strap?
I was told it would be possible to fit the green strap on 5167a with modification. Can someone give more detail?
Also where can I get the green straps? |

I think they just sell the khaki strap. But they discontinued it

The khaki strap for the 5168G won't fit the 5167A as far as I understand. |

With a slight modification to your bank account (around $4K) it’s easy.

The green strap is still being produced, but it can only be bought by those who own the LE model, and solely via Patek Salons.
They also operate under the policy that Aquanaut straps are cut and fitted to the watch before being allowed out of the store. So there’s zero chance of ordering a few, and having a couple of unopened and uncut ones to sell on for a profit. All this has been covered before… https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=488639 https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?p=8040330 |

These straps are impossible to get from an AD. You need to pay thousands on the grey market.

There is no blue for the 5167. Aftermarket only.

Look at RubberB and be done with it and save yourself a lot of time and money.

Posted this in another forum. Go Rubber B. Not exactly the same as PP but quality as good (think I heard Rubber B make the OEM PP rubber straps). I also ordered the orange. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

5167a on green strap?
Quote:
Cheers. It’s an Aquanaut (sports watch?), not a bone China tea pot. These things need to be worn! To be honest, if owners are OCD about watches my advice is always “stick to Rolex”. Rolex SS sports watches are pretty much indestructible. Having said that, I have an AP 15202 and barely wear it for fear of scratches! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Same position. My 5164 is beat up and my 15202 has a few scratches as well. Luckily I'm probably never selling and I enjoy the character... And I can still sell them for more than I paid |

I, too, have a 15202 that I barely wear which, after 4 years, hasn't a single scratch and yet my 5711 is a mess. Love the reference to the "bone china tea pot". |

Haha! I have an Aquanaut, 5726 and had a 5712. I acquired the 15202 by accident (long story but a dealer owed me money so I took the watch instead) and was never meant to keep the 15202. Out of all the watches I’ve ever worn I’d say the 15202 is my favourite by far. Proportions, fit, build quality, bracket, blue face etc. I absolutely love it. It is delicate though.

Hey everyone,
Any thoughts on the "buystrap" website that seems to sell an aftermarket version of the green bracelet ? Pretty sure à store in Italy offered me this for 1000€ when it is lists for 45$ on the website. Quality does look somewhat acceptable. Curious to hear your thoughts Thanks |
