  1. That is a deployant buckle. One end is fixed to the end of a strap. The other end has a slot where the other strap goes through, and a pin where the wearer could fit through any hole on the strap.

    The deployant buckle is then folded to lock it in place over the wrist when watch is worn.

    It's rather intuitive you know. ;)

    Here are some photos of the deployant buckle and it's attachment to the strap. The deployant has a tiny screw that holds the end that fastens to the short side of the strap, the screw must be removed and the cross piece slides out. On the second one, one side of the cross piece unscrews you slip the other side in and screw in the one that was unscrewed. With the one that has the tiny screw, I use a tiny bit of Blue Loctite, not a big drop, just a tiny drop.

    The other end is for the tongue side and you slide it through and the pin goes in one of the holes in the tongue side. You adjust that side by moving to another hole to tighten or loosen.

    Great, Thanks for the input. 

     

     

    Also, do you guys know when the newer version of the Offshores are coming with the jewel in the middle of the rotor? I've only seen one, waiting to see when the other ones come out?

  2. The top one is the newer "2014" edition. It has ceramic pushers rather than the rubber pushers, not sure what other "improvements" were made. this is a rep of the latest line of AP ROO 42mm watches. It also uses a strap with the tang buckle which is 20mm. The older model uses the deployant buckle and it is 18mm wide. I'm slowly converting all of my AP ROO's over to the newer style straps and tang buckles, as they are much more comfortable to me, anyway.

     

    Not sure what you are describing about the leather strap. Is it difficult because the leather keepers are too tight?

    How am I supposed to use this kind of buckle. Thanks. 
  3. Can someone please explain to me the differences between these two watches apart from the leather and rubber straps. Also, can someone please tell me how to put on the leather strap! It's hard putting it in the slider and lifting the case because it sticks to my wrist.

  4. Looks very nice. May I know which version is this please?

    The movement is definitely healthy! 

     

    Not sure which version but here is the title: Royal Oak 41mm 15400 1:1 Best Edition Silver Dial on Black Leather Strap A2824.

    I actually told them to change the strap to brown but they never did so waiting for them to make the changes. Other than that everything looks OK?

     

    And here is the link: http://pure-time.com/product/royal-oak-41mm-15400-11-best-edition-silver-dial-on-black-leather-strap-a2824/

    Looks good to me! :D Beautiful watch 

     

    Thank you :)

  5. First off I searched around for a while before I purchased this watch. I went through numerous websites and I ended up with Joshua. The reason I chose Joshua is because of his superior customer service skills. Any email he will get back to you within a few hours and the the QC pics is what the product looked like exactly! The detail and feel of the watch is amazing as well. I loved how secure and tightly packed everything was.

     

    Make no mistake, if your looking for an amazing Hublot Joshua is your guy. Here's the link to what I purchased:
