FPJ Chronometre Bleu deployant is in

It's great and just like my other FPJ deployants as expected. $1850 white gold clasp (gold has the right properties for the clasp), and tantalum.

Looks very nice. I guess you can have another strap with the pin and buckle for quick changes

Looks nice - any difference in comfort between deployant and tang buckle?

It works out for me that they are the same, with the deployant the CB disappears on my wrist until I happen to look at the time. I think there will be some individual variance.

Dang. Thats my only regret with my CB. Should have gotten a deployant.

It's a white gold clasp (18k gold has the right properties for the clasp, the "springy-ness" it needs), and tantalum for the outside buckle section. Same idea for FPJ pt deployants.
