ROC on rubber strap?
Who here has the SS ROC on a rubber strap and what’s your thoughts?
Also am I right in thinking it only comes on deployant and there’s no tang buckle option? |

I have one (purchased through APSC during a service). The deployant was an option but significantly more than the tang. I mostly wear it during the summer but it is hard to not have the ROC on the steel bracelet IMO

Are you saying they offer both deployant and tang buckle options for the rubber strap on the RO! |

Rubber strap with deployment will be very nice, do you have an idea how much?

You may prefer the tang, who knows. One thing I really dislike about the tang is when you put it on/take it off. These are heavy watches and it almost wants to slide off your wrist when you disconnect. The deployant saves you there since it still wraps around your wrist and you can then slide it off over your hand once deployed.

Yeah, my RC has a deployant. Getting used to the 26470 has been an adjustment, strongly considering the conversion as the 20mm hornback will accept a deployment AP has for that size.

Sorry...yes they do offer both but I chose the tang buckle due to the much lower cost.
