Can I buy only the strap holders for ROO 15710?

Hi! My dad has a ROO 42mm but has broken both his strap holders (I don’t know if this is the actual name, I’ve attached a picture to be more clear). He already bought some straps from Horus but doesn’t like the material as much as the original one. Also buying a new strap from AP would be a bit expensive as he only needs to replace the two small rubber strap holders.
Thanks.

The term you are looking for is "strap keeper".

Yup, and the answer to the original inquiry is no, you cannot just purchase them.

If you don’t want to pay for a new strap, maybe you can get a suitable piece of leather to make into a keeper and stitch it in place.

Unfortunately the Horus straps are smaller than the original
