Rubber strap with tang buckle

[Bull1]

Hi,
where can I find a rubber strap for a 41mm or 39 mm royal oak with a tang buckle. I do not like deployant clasp.
Thanks.

Rubber B?

I looked into Rubberb, but they use either deployant clasp or velcrose, no tang buckle.

Um, AP?

I could be wrong but I don't think Audemars makes anything to fit that bottom 18mm taper where the tang buckle would be. With Offshore I think you can do what you are asking but not on Royal Oak. I switched from leather to a Rubber B.

Ap makes a tang for 41mm ro for sure.

In the meantime buy a $4 no-name tang that is 18mm - that way you can get the deployant off the strap and buy you some more time to figure out an OEM solution. I did that to wear a hornback until the rubber diver came in from AP.

Not since the last time I asked.

No, I've asked this question recently, as I'd like to convert my RG ROC onto tang buckle with rubber strap, but there is no option for this, which is surprising.

I literally purchased a 41mm conversion kit from AP. Here are the parts.

“We do have the option with a Universal Tongue buckle.

Hate to necro threadjack, but would it be possible to get a picture of the
"Buckle Ardillon 18mm?" Searched but can't find whether it has a circular or ovular pin...

Long story short, I'm trying to find an alternative to the "old circle style" 42mm ROOC deployant and was quoted nearly $700 from APSC for a "new oval style" 42mm ROOC rubber strap and tang buckle. If I can instead replace the deployant with the ROC tang buckle for $140, I'd call that a win.

AP makes an 18mm black PVD buckle from the End of Days

PM Sent (I think).

Anyone know whether the Stainless Royal Oak Clasp referenced earlier will work?
