Hi,
I got a seawolf on black leather strap with white stitching & tag like buckle, is it possible for me to change the buckle to deployment clasp?
or do i have to buy a new strap altogether?

Thanks..

In theory you can change from tang to deployant because the spring bar holes are the same.

The deployant strap doesn't have holes in it, nor does it have keepers but that shouldn't make any practical impact - it won't look perfect, but should work.

I am planning to buy the deployment buckle online so hope i can just remove the tag type buckle & swap it with deployment on my seawolf leather strap, don't want a paperweight, anyone tried swapping a tag buckle with a deployment one?

Thanks..

It's just a spring bar holding it in place. Be aware though that a lot of the deployants sold online (for not much less than AD list price) are fake.
