WTB Brown aquanaut strap

I am looking to purchase a brown patek aquanaut strap for a 5167R with at least 6 bar positions remaining.
Mine is good at the seventh position, but want to try at the sixth position, but don't want to go the AD for a new strap if I cut one more off and 6 is too short.

Does anyone have a strap they cut too short and had to buy a new strap and start over, and now have a left over short strap they want to sell?
Thanks.

Why don’t you buy some cheap ones on eBay and do trial and error?

Beside just experimenting in sizing, I would like an original strap to assure symmetry. And I could then conceivably have summer and winter length straps.

I am in Louisiana.

I did the same thing you did and felt it was a little tight as it was cut in the summer (thicker wrists)
so I bought a bs fake one on eBay to check on the size difference and I ended up staying with the original cut I had

I have a spare brown part uncut and brand new.
The top one in the pic. I’m not in the USA though.

I hear you James.
I am looking for a strap designed for the ref 5167 with at least 6 slots.
I don't have anything else to trade.
I am not looking for other colors.
Thanks.

Thanks.

It means, "In Before The Lock" for soliciting to buy outside of the classifieds section and without becoming a Pledge Member. If the Mods see this thread, they will either lock it or delete it for the rules violation.

I would suggest becoming a Pledge Member to help support the forum which will give you certain privileges.

And please read this thread to see where your rules violation occurs

I see.
I thought the last letter of your abbreviation was an I not a L.
Thanks for educating me as to the rules. I didn’t realize I was out of line.
The thread can be closed if that is the right thing to do.
