Usually on these types of clasps, there is a little metal tang with a notch on the inside of the part that the worded end of the clasp slips over a bar. Under that bar is where you lift up the notched tang. After you lift it up, using a miniscrewdriver or watch knife, you can then slide the attachment to the desired band length. Then push the tang back down to lock it.

The newer straps on TAG are generally wider than the professional series and the cost of a new genuine TAG heuer clasp or bracelet may easily exceed the costof buying an entire watch of that series used.
I recommend searching for an after-market strap/ buckle usuing your case back numbers as the search criteria.

I had exactly the same problem with exactly the same model watch, and it happened to me twice. The AQ-160 is the important part of the model number as far as replacement parts are concerned. The first time, I took it to the shop where I bought the watch, and they replaced the band, but it cost me $50. The second time, I looked up the Web for the master agent for Casio in Australia, and they said I could buy the end piece, not the whole band, for $6. I found I could replace it quite easily myself by using a drawing pin to remove the spring pin that holds it together. A bit fiddly to reassemble but not too bad. In fact, I didn't wait for the new part to arrive, just used the unbroken end of the old band. So now I have a repaired band plus the old band and a new end piece, in case it ever happens again.
I really like this watch, but it is a pity the bands are so weak.

Try your nearest watch shop. Most you be able to repair it for you.
If the can't, then its back to Christian Dior I'm afraid!

I'm having the same problem with the same model. Were you able to find a replacement strap? Thank you.
The reverse of the strap
Step 2. Get a piece of string or ribbon and wrap it around your wrist. Snip
the string so that one end meets the other and measure this diameter.
Step 3. On the other end of the strap you will see the hook which goes over
the clasp - you will see the next picture. From this hook the measured distance
will be where the end of the string lies.
The clasp mechanism - the watch is to the right of the

Step 4. This is the tricky bit! Insert a small screwdriver into the hole on
the main clasp part, from the right hand side and bend it down towards the strap
thus opening the clasp. Do not insert a tool from the left side, under the
clasp and use the bar as a fulcrum; you will bend this rod and the watch strap
will not hook over it. Move the clasp to the desired position and gently locate
the ridge nearest the position. Once located, press down on the open clasp
until it clicks into place - voila!
