Hi everyone,

New to this forum having recently received a Navitimer for my 40th birthday.

Really pleased with the watch but the strap (standard pin type) is a little big for me even when done up to the smallest hole. Is there a "short" version of the strap (black leather) and does anyone know the UK RRP for it in plain leather and also if there is a deployant equivalent (and the UK RRP for this too)?

Many thanks in advance

There are short straps, generally 10mm shorter each side. I'm sure that a UK member can give you current pricing on tang / deployant. Shorts / longs aren't generally listed separately but reckon on about GBP10 more.

Give Andrew Michaels a call on 01636/679638 ask for Sam or Andrew and they will help you out.
A calf leather strap is around £125 including a tang buckle.

Hope this helps,

Col.

I can't speak for UK prices, but I had to pay a $50 USD premium for my short croc deployant strap. I would assume the UK is similar, if not slightly more expensive.

Yeah, but that was croc. Smaller premium for regular (calf) leather.
