Which Hirsch straps are compatible with the Omega 16mm Deployment clasp. I have the 45mm PO. I want a couple of back up straps to use instead of the brown croc , when I'm on hols, or for sports. Ideally one without the gap for the buckle where it joins the deployment clasp.
If you have any other makes / suggestions please let me know.

The Hirsch Leonard line does work well with the Omega deployant clasp, but that isn't going to be an option for you with the 45mm PO, which is 22 mm at the lugs. The Leonardo's only taper 2 mm from the lugs to the buckle, so a strap that is 22mm at the lugs will be 20mm at the buckle and won't work with the Omega deployants, which are 16mm and 18mm. Also, you'd have the tang gap issue.
Beyond that, I don't know of any stock Hirsch straps that either (1) taper from 22mm at the lugs to 16 mm at the buckle/clasp; or (2) do not have a gap to accomodate the tang for a buckle. You may need a custom strap that meets these criteria.

Both Fredawatchstraps.com and watchband.biz carry the Leonardo models.
