Wow, that's cheap. There's only one AP AD here in Toronto so I don't have much option. But I agree 2k is crazy expensive just for a rubber strap and deployant buckle.

Guys, didn't mean to revive my old thread but I cancelled the strap order from my AD as they charged me a whopping $1k (not 2k as previously stated) for the rubber dive strap and tang buckle. Plus I don't have the end links to switch over from the bracelet. Last night while browsing ebay I came across and bought the same strap and buckle for a fraction of the dealer cost at $300 and also the endlinks conversion kit for another $150. Well worth it and so much cheaper. Pics from the ebay listing. Cheers.

(Thanks for HKRolesFans for the heads up)
