Last question for tonight.

I have this prevendome buckle that has no screws, nor any visible way to remove it. Anyone has any experience with these? Is it open in the middle or has the strap been glued around the buckle?

I want to remove the buckle and put it on my oem strap? Any chance of this happening without a blow torche or any other sort of heavy equiment.

Better photo. I think the strap was stiched around the buckle :( Please tell me I'm wrong.

That is a sewn in buckle. None removable.

You have to cut the strap, or have someone that knows what they are doing do it for you. I have sent these straps away to certain strap makers and had them install them on the strap I wanted it on. If you need any names of guys that can do it for you, just shoot me an email.

My opinion - leave it as is... Beautiful. Is the size wrong?

Maybe pick up another buckle for OEM?
