Tudor Deployant Clasp
I just purchased a RubberB for my Black Bay and now I’m looking for a deployant clasp, preferably OEM. I’ve seen a few on eBay for about $55 that are being sold (from Latvia and Israel with free shipping ) that have the Tudor logo and look authentic but are probably knockoffs. I can’t believe that an OEM clasp would sell for that price.
https://m.ebay.com/itm/18-mm-Stainle...IAAOSwAQBauF20 Should I contact Tudor directly or a Tudor AD and would they sell me just the clasp without an accompanying leather strap or should I take a chance with eBay? All comments are welcome especially from anyone who has sourced a deployant clasp, whether OEM or aftermarket.

Or, should I just look for a tang buckle even though the deployant clasp looks so much nicer?

That’s always an option Eliot but with the price of the RubberB it’s starting to add up.

I have purchased a BB oem strap from my ad. The leather strap runs about $180 with the keeper. Does not include the clasp which is extra of course.

Would you know the AD price for the clasp without the strap?

It’s around $400 with the clasp. Not cheap

Not meaning to hijack this thread... does anyone find the buckle falls out of the hole and thus falls apart when taking off the watch?
I love the strap but it’s becoming a bit of a pain. 50/50 it happens |

Have you tried them on? The deployant clasp is very well made, but some feel it is a bit big—depending on the watch and strap I tend to agree.

The Tudor one is nice but it is pricey.

If I can get the watch for say 22-2400 that’s a little over a 1500 diff but I have another watch. $800 just for a Tudor bracelet I’m not sure about.
