juicy Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I am looking at purchasing an Aquaracer on rubber but I am not too keen on the buckle type that comes on the band. Is there a deployment clasp available for the Tag rubber straps? Is it available from our dealers so I can order one with my watch. Thanks!

docblackrock Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 No. The Aquaracer-family rubber straps have always utilised a tang buckle only. TAG Heuer simply don't make what you are seeking. The only rubber deployment straps are the ones used on the racing Carrera and the new SLR - both of these use the foldover clasp that was developed for use with the leather-strapped Heritage/Classics line (Monza, Monaco, Carrera, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgun Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 While you're on the topic of rubber straps, where can I get a good price on a gen rubber strap? The one that comes with the Carrea Racing Chrono is pretty stiff. I've tried the gen on at Macy's ($2300.00) and that strap has a much better feel; it very pliable, and molds snugly to your wrist.

Thats too bad there is no cure for the Aquaracer rubber strap. I may have to get creative and Frankenstein a strap or two to make one with a deployment. I am too lazy to buckle and I tend to want to put on/remove watches without patience It appears that only the 'sportier' models get the deployment and the buckle is reserved for the Aquaracer.
