Don't matter what he does or how "crap" his music is, Kanye rakes in the major dough and I am sure the majority of the users on this board are envious of his earnings power. I know I am!

A grand for a rep seems a bit too much imo. If someone has a grand to spend on a rep, they certainly can buy a genuine.

Come on already. Stop with these posts. You are obviously upset with AP Bands quality over your strapluxe brand straps. You are strapluxe.com. Everyone knows this, stop it already. It's so childish. Let the products speak for themselves.

Remember these are reps here, not the real thing but close.

All you do across all forum boards is shill and "try" to bring down other strapmakers. For that reason alone I wouldn't buy from you. I was considering the IWC straps you offer for my big pilots but this behavior is a major deterrent

WTF ????????????

Just speaking my own thoughts/experiences my friend. I am a very satisfied customer of Strapluxe and you can't smack me down for that.

From your pics, those AP Bands have some MAJOR GAPS between the strap and the watch casing after they are installed on the endlinks!!

Man that strap compability quality sucks in my opinion. But cool box from AP Bands

You should have tried getting your straps from Strapluxe. Perfect fitment from the pics I have seen from others and from my own experience.

Don't sweat it. Stuff like that happens to watches. Can't do anything about the nicks/dents except just be more careful next time around.

Once you get tooo many nicks/dents that you just can't stand it, replace the bezel.

I vouch for Strapluxe AP ROO straps. Have bought 3 of them in the past 2 years and they all fit snug and flush with OEM endlinks.

Hornback straps are always sickkkk, but on a Rubberclad, the rubber strap looks best

Looks Great!

Awesome

I give you major kudos for trying to do this!

Is it easy to find a lume that has the same yellow color as the hour markers when in regular light? That would look better imo.

wow...one of the ugliest AP reps ever made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

STAY AWAY!!!!

Great matching buckle! Strap is killer too. Great combo

Always loved the stealth bomber look with black PVD PAMs so this would be my choice. Here's an example from my favorite strap maker

Black Buffalo strap with black stitching with matching PVD PreV buckle

guys I am in the same boat...

... I cannot decide which one is the most accurate between:

- black theme

- navy theme

- volcano with SS bracelet (does it exist or the gen is only with crock strap?)

- black theme with yellow numbers and hands

PLEASE HELP ME TOO!!!

The gen Volcano only came with hornback strap. SS bracelet on a vocalno shouts out REPLICA!!

Ive been contemplating on a new watch for a while....had my eyes on the updated Barichello version...but the watch doesn't seem to be up to the mark as yet....Now deciding on whether to go go for the Black Themes or the Volcano..could someone please comment on which of them is more accurate as comared to the gym..also for an aftermarket strap...is apbands the best or are there other dealers for the same..

I'd go for Black Themes over the Volcano just because of aesthetics. The bright orange on the Volcano is very distastefully done and am still shocked as to why AP came out with that color....it is just plain ugly.

And as for aftermarket straps, lots of people here including myself favor StrapLuxe over Apbands. You may consider trying them out.

I guess I'm one of the odd ones. I'd spring for a good AP RO scuba anytime cause it gets rid of all the flaws in the sec@12. I've seen the lume on the gen blue scuba and it's insane!!

FYI, the Scubas are still considered ROO's, not RO's.

I'd like to ask how are u going to get one?

You obviously do not know how easy it is to get straps and accessories from AP regardless or not if your name is even in their computer systems.

Just call the AP Florida Service & Parts manager (Fabio) and get one from him.

Was interested in getting a rep RM. How are they?

I'm interested in putting that gen rubber Survivor strap on my AP ROO Rubberclad rep. Do you think it would fit?

someone just posted a photo of their AP ROO Strapluxe strap on another forum if you want a fresh picture:
