Hey guys, do you have any idea how much is the buckle? I got confirmation, that I will receive the watch early next year. Today I was in the saloon and checked both the composite strap and the bracelet, and I am not sure. I like the bracelet, but it is a bit heavy, so I am thinking having both. It was hinted to me, that If I want to have both, it is better to buy on a bracelet, and add the strap after (cheaper), but the strap has no buckle. How much would the buckle be?

The cost of OEM clasp is $1031

I think the strap looks good and a nice option to mix up the colors a bit. The design reminds me of the aqua bracelet links. Orange and green for me I think.

Thank you so much. So If I want the two options, the best thing is to buy on a bracelet (current price 20 000 CHF, to change in 10 days), and order an additional clasp for 1000 CHF (Last year they used to drop one pair of black composite bracelet as a gift, but they cost 400 CHF as far as I know.)

So in todays prices the two options will cost me 21 000 CHF.

The price that I giving you is in US dollar......

Not sure what the going price in Switzerland.....

Another thing I want to mention if you switch to rubber strap, you will need a matching pair of spring bars....... Which will cost $40 each......

IMHO.... I think it's best to buy the bracelet version, then you have a complete set..... Plus having the options to be able to switch around, bracelet or rubber......

Just changed the strap on the 5167R...Not quite as nice as the stainless steel on red strap, but I will say I really like the change. I didn't dislike the brown strap at all but I do like the dark blue better.

No disrespect to those who have already bought, but having seen the posted pics, my opinion is that these straps look ugly and clunky - detracts from the sleek, slim look of the aquanaut. Huge miss by rubber B, in my opinion.

I tend to agree and feel it makes the watch look non original.

True..does make the watch look a bit robust, I personally was aiming for the Military Green band color!

Just wanted to post a few pictures of the 5164 on the new 5167 RubberB strap. I know there is a small gap but it works. On the wait list for the 5164 straps for early 2021.
