peer agreement (net): +1deployment buckle Explanation: "Genuine Omega New Style Fold-Over 16 MM Deployment Buckle features a push-button release clasp. They call this the New Style, however we aren't sure if it's a new style or an old style deployment buckle. The Omega 16 mm deployment buckle fits the Omega deployment strap, which is 16 mm at the point where the straps meets the buckle" It is one of those buckles which closes in two stages: you hook the two parts together then you bend it over and "click" again..... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2005-03-08 08:10:06 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It\'s a sort of safety catch so you cannot lose your watch !!!!! sorry - couldn\'t resist the exclamation marks - clin d\'oeil !
