Hi All, New hear in terms of posts but been reading for some time. Great forum to pass some time learning about other peoples passions and desires

I need some help and assistance. Recently purchased a very nice AP Panda on a steel bracelet. I would like the option of a Rubber / leather daily "beater" strap.

Thought I would just take my time see what comes up on flea bay and assemble a complete strap over time.. So starts the Quiz.

Pictures are of links purchased for "Royal Oak Offshore". The steel bracelet is Genuine AP. What do you feel the links are for because they do not fit well? They will fit in the cut out in the watch case and width is spot on but end angles are not the same (last pic) and they have no movement when installed. They can be fitted but don't look or feel right compared to the OE.

The angle of the link top to bottom appears to be too steep. Not advertised as genuine so could even be from a replica piece of s*ite, as the finish o the sides of the links is poor quality!

Any suggestions of origin welcome and thank you in advance

Hi Again

As it looks like there is no answers does anyone know where I might be able to source a genuine or aftermarket set of these. SS ROO G serial. Local AD has said not available and my patience is wearing thin. Thanks in advance

I'll have a set for my ROC 25860 by the end of the week and will compare for you. You may wish to check apbands.com and see if they have detailed enough pictures to figure it out.
