APBands conversion kit for 15400

Hey guys,

A quick questions for the experts out there. I've searched for a while before making this post, found some answers but not all. Here is my dilemma;

Have a Royal Oak 15400 41mm
Have the APBANDS RO conversion links
Have an OEM croc strap from a 15300 (39mm?)

So the APBANDS links fit and screw into my 15400 just fine. The problem I'm having is the fitment to the 15300 Croc strap. It's almost as if the little "notch" that sits inside the OEM strap insert is ever so slightly too long.

My question is: Does this 15300 strap that I have differ in any way from an OEM strap I should be using for my 15400 model?? It ALMOST fits, seems as though it is .5mm or so off when attempting to push the lug bar through the strap/links. Any help would be appreciated

The 15300 and 15400 straps are not interchangeable.

If you manage to attach a strap, please post pics! I might want to do this for my 15400 as well!

This is not mine, I saw this picture a while back here in the forum, it will give you an idea.

Its a nice option I would like to know how much it costs.
If the owner of the photo is out there, he might give us an idea.

Badly fitting strap. Very rough around the plots.
