5226g Clasp Confusion

Hey everyone. I was fortunate enough to recently acquire the 5226g and am confused about adding the deployant clasp. Does anyone know if I order the deployant clasp if it will fit the factory straps? Or do I need to ALSO order custom straps for it? My AD seems to think I need to order custom straps. Not just shorter straps but Custom Shorter straps if that makes sense. Thanks!

Tbh I have the clasp ( steel though) much cheaper and use it on a strap that tapers to 16mm

I have the 5226 on a deployant. The regular straps do not work for me. You need the short end to be much shorter than on a regular strap. Like 20mm shorter. I think the custom made straps i have are 55mm/125mm. I have small wrists like 17cm. If i remember well the regular strap will be 75mm/115mm. The regular strap places the clasp too much on the side of the wrist and will make it uncomfortable.
