Hi,

I have a 1966 AP ultra thin gold dress watch with the original AP strap and gold buckle. I love the watch, but the strap is rather short. I can barely wear it using the first hole. Since this watch doesn't have outter lugs (I believe the strap connects inside the case via tiny screws), what are my options? The strap is very thin -- perhaps 1 mm or 1 1/2 mm. Do you know of anyone who would have older thin AP straps? As an alternative, do you know of anyone who would make a custom made strap for such a watch? Otherwise, would replacing the buckle with a deployment clasp add any length? I truly appreciate any and all recommendations.

Many thanks,
Bruce
