Pin & buckle to deployment?
Pin & buckle to deployment?
I have a nice leather CW strap, recently purchased which is a standard ‘pin&buckle’ config. How much of a headache, if any, is it to switch it to a deployment config? Any tips/ recommendations are appreciated folks...

Not much of a headache at all. I’ve added Bader deployants and butterfly clasps to many watch straps. The only issue is that there will be a small hole where the pin would have been on the short end of the buckle, if that makes sense (see att head photo). This is a purely cosmetic issue. Just make sure you order a clasp to properly fit the end of your strap.

There are many different styles of deployant.
Typically whilst easy enough to fit, a CW Bader or Omega style deployant is unlikely to be a good fit on the wrist if paired with a standard style of strap (e.g. one with an 80mm buckle end and 120mm tail end).
