Aquanaut 5065a replacement rubber strap

I'm thinking of buying the army green rubber strap for my wife's Aquanaut 5065a, does PP still sell them? I read somewhere that they discontinued it.

Patek AD “won’t” sell you the green, as the 5065 came as black rubber. So prepare to convince them to make the order for you. Or…EBay.

I actually heard they discontinued/won't offer the green on the newer 5067a. My understanding was that the 5065a straps in MANY colors can be requested. Could be wrong though...

Yes they do have several colours a available for the 5065a. There's definitely the green and I've seen baby blue and grey. My wife likes the green so with her birthday coming up I was looking to get one for her. I will give PP a call in the the morning.

Speaking of, is eBay a good source to buy Aquanaut straps? I see someone in Taiwan is selling several around $600. Is $600 typical? From what I have seen skimming the sites was that Aquanaut straps were hard to get and very expensive.

5065a straps are readily available at any PP dealer. Don’t buy on ebay for a premium…
