I have a triple date and my Omega alligator band arrived that I purchased knowing it was a buckle band and not a deployment band.
I know there’s a deployment clasp that was designed to go with this strap, but don’t know the name of it?
Can anybody help me out with what I’m seeking, I don’t want the butterfly clasp because that exist too. Thanks for any help, here’s the band by the way.

Why not a buckle? They are far less bulky.

They destroy the leather and this band is too expensive to ruin like that.

Cant say that's been my experience, but to each his own.

It eventually cracks the leather where you fold it back to go through the buckle has been my experience.

Measure the buckle width, it will be either 16mm or 18mm. Order accordingly.

Use leather treatment and it should be fine. I like Allen Edmonds Leather Lotion.

That's the one, thank you Vercingetorix, I'll see if I can locate it by the reference number. I've seen it called the "Pro Deployant Buckle" too but can't find anything for sale under that description.

Damn! I thought the band was hard to find? $330 is the cheapest I've found this so far and I ain't doing that, and it continues...
