any trick with oracle straps?

[amexus]

hi!

maybe someone can tell me the trick...

after 5 weeks of waiting I recieved the carbon strap and now I am trying for nearly 3 hours to put that strap on the APROO. What is the trick with that? Also: what is normal? when the endlinks are able to rotate or when they are stiff in the strap? with my strap only one endlink can be rotated.

thanks for any input

both endlinks of a properly made aftermkt strap should be able to move around and rotate after being installed on the watch. 1st strap change is always a biattttch. good luck and post up some pics!

Humm i used about 20min putting it on and off.

They are far more easy then AP BANDS endlinks.

@watchturbo:

I mean, when I take one of such endlinks with my fingers and try to move (kind of back and forth) it, it is not working on the strap. it is stiff like screwed. Only one endlink will move forward. Is that OK? Or should I ask oracle to send out another one?

The endlinks should be installed both in the same direction....look at the links and you

I never bought one of his straps so I can't tell you if that is 'normal' for his straps.

My assumption is that both endlinks should be able to move???

Just to stress this again...the endlinks shall not move!!!!

They have to be fixed like screwed!

Otherwise the strap would move on the case and get damaged!

Flip the moving endling around...that will cure
