I'm posting these Moser deployant buckle pictures on behalf of Vernon.

Thanks for posting!
My big question is, how does it wear?
I only have one watch with a deployant, my own actually, and I am not really happy with it.
I find a simple buckle and clasp much more comfortable.
But maybe it is my thin wrists.

A buckle is more comfortable, but the deployant saves the strap and can avoid dropping the watch.

JMHO,

that way the deployant opens and closes on the other side of the wrist.  (this would only apply to single-fold deployant clasps)

Hi Guys,

I must admit that I had some doubts about getting a deployant having read numerous posts about them in general! I bought this deployant 'blind' - it just seemed like a nice addition to a watch I was very happy with. The buckle itself is really nicley made (as is the standard one) - note the bevelled polished edge! It is a lovely thing.

As for wearing it - well,  at the moment it is sitting quite nicley BUT it is wearing a little tight to achieve this. The flat metal sections of buckle itself is sitting round the curve at the side of my wrist rather than flat across the inside - if you know what I mean. It seems to actually match the curve of my wrist - which helps. It seems to work ok but I have to admit it's far from perfect. I think thats something that us guys with thin wrists have to accept from deployants. I remember seeing a long debate on a Lange forum about this and decided not to bother with a deployant for my 1815 as a result!

I think the best deployant I have worn was on a Patek Aquanaut - but that was quite a small buckle and has that lovely system where you trim both sides of the composite strap to make it fit properly. That one does work well.

So in summary - a lovely thing, works ok on my wrist but I would definately suggest try before you buy. I may be going back to the normal one!!

Great to hear your thoughts - thanks. I love the 'chat' on here.
