ZRC Butterfly Deployment Clasp / Buckle in Silver Size 18mm

Description: ZRC Butterfly Deployment Clasp A deployment clasp, also called a deployment buckle, a deployant clasp, a butterfly clasp, or an invisible double locking clasp is an expanding metal mechanism designed to fasten a watch band with a fitted look. Deployment watch bands are an elegant option, eliminating the bulky look of the longer watch bands with traditional buckles. They also make your strap last longer at the buckle because the strap is not bent like it is for a traditional buckle. However, as sleek as deployment watch buckles make your watch look, they can be just as tricky to operate, much more so than other watch clasp types. Installing a Deployment Clasp Here is a link to a great YouTube Video that shows you how to install the Deployment Clasp: Link Installation Video How a Deployment Clasp Works Invented in 1910 by Louis Cartier, deployment watch clasps fold and unfold to provide a tailored fit. When a deployment clasp is closed, its buckle is virtually invisible. In order to look invisible, a deployment clasp watch band has two “wings” that fold in toward the middle from opposite ends of the clasp. How to Open a Deployment Clasp The deployment clasp is opened by pulling the joined ends of the clasp outward, away from each other, like a butterfly spreading its wings. The deployment clasp buckle can then be fastened around the wrist. Opening and Fastening the Deployment Buckle On a watch with a leather band, the deployment clasp buckle must be pulled open, away from the edge at the end of the watch, to expose the pin, which fits into the holes on the band. You must position the band, so that the pin faces the hole corresponding to your wrist size. Once you find the proper hole on the watch band and push the pin through the hole, you press the top and bottom portions of the hinged buckle back together. The deployant buckle will snap firmly into place. After the buckle has been closed, slip the end of the band through the loops on the strap. Unfastening and Removing a Deployment Clasp Watch Reversing the steps, pull the end of the watch band through the loops and reopen the deployment clasp buckle, exposing the pin. Remove the watch band from the hole and pull the end of the watch band out of the buckle. Then, to reopen the butterfly clasp, pull the band upward toward your body so as to unfold each wing from its closed position back into an open position. If that does not open the clasp, pull on each end of the clasp to reopen it, just as you did to open it when you put on the watch.
