Why not just go factory or order one of their custom straps?

Agreed.


I'm not aware of any aftermarket quick change straps. I'd also be weary of them as I don't want my watch falling off if the mechanism on an aftermarket strap failed. Last watch I sent in for damage due to dropping was a $4,600 repair

I posted this question in another place but any idea if the 26238 steel bracelet (quick release) would at least fit onto the 26420? I miss steel bracelets..

Try Vagenari straps. They’re made in China but the quality is good. They also make straps for VC overseas and other high end brands.

There's a company called Liger that makes some good looking straps in Indonesia. No idea the quality

It doesn’t fit the diver, which is also 42mm. I would be very surprised if it fit the 43mm ROO.

Making steel bracelets for the diver and 43mm would be an easy moneymaker for AP, at probably $7k a pop.

Thanks for the response.
On another note, does anyone have a deployant foldable clasp, quick release, compatible with the 43mm ROO that they might have for sale? Preferably stainless steel. Sorry if this is posted in wrong place, please let me know otherwise. I don't currently live close to any boutiques.

Are you looking for straps that include the quick release hardware?

Because I know for a fact that Jean Rousseau is not authorized to make/sell those straps to retail customers. i asked. Twice :)

Which means that going through AP will result in the price being about 2x what Jean Rousseau would charge if they could sell 'em.
