Strap keeper torn

[BruceLee 0]

Hello,

I have a PAM (Don't know what is the model# etc) was given as gift and has no keeper anymore. is there a way to have a new keeper installed. seems like it is a bit difficult to have a new keeper unless I buy a new strap. any help? thank you

Leather strap ? Rubber ? 
Are you talking about the fixed keeper or the floating one ?

You can find, buy, or make a new keeper that looks similar to your strap. Or a black keeper so it would match your buckle.  

Remove the strap from the watch then slide it in. Reinstall the strap, Done.

Should buy a keeper and install myself than. I know those screws are really small for the strap. I guess I should buy tool set and put my reading glasses on thanks

Can anybody direct me where to buy the keeper? A link may be?

Post more photo of your watch, especially the lug profile, if you need help removing the strap.

Buy a new strap...... cheap as chips (and sweet and sour sauce)
