I call on your professional help

I would like to entertain the idea of fitting a black croc strap to my 5167 aqua also fitting the oem clasp.

Does anyone sport such a strap on theirs and can you guys advice where I find such a compatible strap? Is it 20, or 21mm?

Thank you guys,

Mitch

I didn't use the stock clasp but I liked the 5167 very much on leather.

Truth is I preferred it without the clasp which I am not a fan of.

Really? i find it quite well made, what I don't like is how easy it is to open it, any good thief ąd you won't notice a thing

I also really don't like the clasp. I find it a little too thick and I can't get the right fit. and yes I have tried with 3 different straps / combinations...
Living in a tropical climate with airconditioning everywhere doesnt really help either... hot/cold/hot/cold/hot/cold
Times like these make me miss glidelock clasps

I have had it only 2 days but for now find it perfect, more or less Nautilus level comfort, at keast 5711-5712, nor better nor worse, really the same feeling

Stick with the OEM rubber strap. Works well with the dial
