    8. FAQ

    Q: Are these straps waterproof like the original AP rubber?
    A: We do offer waterproof strap options, but they are not identical to the original AP rubber straps. Our waterproof leathers are specially treated to resist water and moisture; however, since they include a thin leather lining for skin comfort, they are not recommended for heavy or prolonged water exposure such as diving.

    Q: Can I use my original AP buckle or clasp?
    A: Absolutely. All straps are OEM-fit and compatible with AP OEM deployant or tang buckles.

    Q: Which strap best matches the yellow accent on the Diver?
    A: Black canvas or hornback with yellow stitching perfectly complements the yellow minute scale for a cohesive look.

    Q: Can I dive with leather straps?
    A: No — we do not recommend using leather straps for diving. Even our waterproof leather options are designed for daily use, light splashes, or humid conditions, but not for full underwater activities. For diving, we advise using your OEM rubber strap or our canvas-based alternatives.

    Q: How do I clean my Diver strap after swimming?
    A: Rinse with fresh water, gently pat dry, and avoid chemical cleaners. Waterproof leather can be wiped clean easily.
