TEXNEWSStainless Steel Deployment Clasp Silver/Gold/Black/Rose Gold Watch Band Buckle Color&Width (14mm,16mm,18mm,20mm,22mm)

EDITED ... See BelowI collect watches and, like most people who collect anything, I have way too many of them.On nice watches, you tend to find, or use, nice straps ... which can be expensive. Personally, I like stingray straps a lot, and have them on half my sport watches, the other half have bracelets. Bending straps back and forth buckling them wears the strap out. You can avoid that by using deployment clasps.I needed a new deployment clasp for a new stingray strap I was putting on a new PVD Black/Gold Seiko Solar dive watch I recently acquired. I ordered one from my usual supplier in gold, and I ordered this one in gold as well as PVD Black. These cost about a fourth what I pay for the others, and these come with a tool and pins that my much more expensive ones do not. The quality seems identical, so I used this one ... I wanted to see how this holds up.The gold finish may wash off the first time I shower with it ... but it looks every bit as good. The mechanism may self destruct right away ... but it looks every bit as good and feels like the mechanism is the same.If it turns out to be disappointing, I'll amend this review but I am very favorably impressed. Side by side, I do not think anyone would have a clue which was the much more expensive.EDITED ... Now that I have bought a dozen or so, and used these, in stainless, gold, rose gold and PVD, long enough to offer an evaluation, I'm more impressed than I was initially. I'll never spend several times as much for a deployment clasp again. These are AT LEAST as good.

The media could not be loaded. Deployment clasp is a good bargain. It fits well and it was easy to install comes with extra spring bars and a spring bar tool. it functions properly and looks nice. This is the second one that I have purchased and I’m very happy with them.

Gets the job done and the clasp looks good on hand. There are better ones in the market but this one is a good middle ground

I recently purchased this deployment clasp for my watch, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The quality of the clasp is outstanding, crafted from durable materials that feel both sturdy and luxurious. It has significantly improved the overall comfort and security of my watch, making it much easier to put on and take off. The sleek design seamlessly integrates with the watch, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. Installation was straightforward, and the clasp functions flawlessly. This purchase has truly elevated my watch-wearing experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade their watch clasp!

My first deployant on a strap, so I tried something cheap. I was pleased to find that it came with spring bars and a small installation tool. Finish matches my watch, although I’m guessing it will rub off over time.I can’t compare to others designs yet, but the design feels somewhat thick and the edges are a bit sharp. So it cuts into my wrist a bit, leaving marks and feeling uncomfortable, especially if I rest my wrist against a table, chair arm, or computer.

The quality of this product is great for the price. The luxury watch brand quoted me over $300 for a similar stainless steel closure. I’m very happy with the purchase.

Piece of garbage. Clasp easily pops open, particularly when wearing long sleeves, jackets, etc. Don't let the fancy machine markings fool you in the pics, this is the same sort of junky deployment clasp found on lots of cheap straps being sold on Amazon. At best it's really annoying, I would never think of using this with any watch of value. I will be retuning this.

Nice rose gold tone butterfly clasp.
