not_finbar 0 Posted April 11, 2013 They look like incredible quality. I want an AP Diver but the stock rubber is too big for my puny wrist. This could be the perfect alternative... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subiim 0 Posted April 11, 2013 How can the strap be to big? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
not_finbar 0 Posted April 11, 2013 How can the strap be to big? I guess you're talking to me - my wrist is 6.3" or so, and the stock rubber on the AP Diver is too long for anyone with less than 6.5" wrists i heard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudy40 0 Posted April 11, 2013 SMP What does one pay for this nice AP strap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dinicol 0 Posted April 11, 2013 Very nice looking strap!! Details of where to purchase...............??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SMP_from_RWI 0 Posted April 11, 2013 These can be purchased from me. I was just to order the next batch from my maker, but fortunately i have obtained some positive results in my quest to produce the inserts to ensure the best gen-like fit. So i will now postpone for a week or so the order of the next batch, and will concentrate on the inserts. When i have the inserts in hand i will order the next batch with them already. The price for the insertless series was $159 including pp fees and registered airmail. I expect the price to rise a little bit with the inserts, but not considerably, somewhere in 5-15%. By the way there is a variety of colors for this saffiano leather, i will post the pictures soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
