I dont think you need to remove the pin on the clasp. The rubber b strap is cut to fit into the link attached to the clasp.

this thing is great! feels very balanced on the wrist! not as light/floppy as a nato, not as heavy and tight/loose as the bracelet. fills lugs perfectly!

$220... a lot for a rubber strap, but it's worth it if you like this sort of thing.

Nice fit at the lugs.

Can you buy it with a buckle?

No Eddie, you can't unfortunately.......
A great looking strap alternative however!! It'll be interesting to see how the new DSSD one will look when it's released in the spring.

Love it. I'm a fan of the stock Rolex clasp at the bottom. I think it balances nicely!!
