Steph Deux 0 Posted June 29, 2016 Hey All, I took the plunge on the below, I'll let you figure out from whom... Anyway, I'm not a fan of the bracelets--anyone have any thoughts on what strap would look good in leather? I thought I saw a similar Omega with a blue one which was nice; might have had a blue dial. I think an orange strap would be a bit too loud, depending on the colour. Rubber would be possible, but I think that would take any dress factor out of it. Not looking for a beach watch. I don't quite have the eye yet for what looks good on watches, so any thoughts, and thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT86 0 Posted June 29, 2016 Nice choice I think she's look smart on one of these https://www.watchobsession.co.uk/collections/omega-style/products/omega-style-calf-deployment-watch-strap-gold-brown Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steph Deux 0 Posted June 30, 2016 You, Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. That is quite nice. I like the orange stitching. Is that yours? I'm likely going to have our very own MDK make it once I decide. We've laid the groundwork for three straps, but one of the things we attach straps to may not come through, so a strap will have to be changed. Am I missing something at that link, though? Don't deployments usually still have a strap loop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steph Deux 0 Posted June 30, 2016 Oh, that's brilliant! I assume that you could mimic the one in the picture that GT88 posted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OmegaOverlord 0 Posted July 5, 2016 If you can pick up the rubber esq strap from one of the TDs, I got mine from Josh over at perfect clones and it was brilliant. Felt the same as the gen. Really nice with the deployment clasp and it has rounded ends so theres no pesky gap between the case and strap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lexidium 94 Posted July 5, 2016 Does the PO have the stupidly long lugs the same as the coaxial 300? If so, I'd like to see a full on shot instead of all the side shots to see what the gap is like between the strap and the case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JSJ 0 Posted July 5, 2016 In my opinion this is the best one : I really like that strap. Where did you source it from please? Linamarket have a shed load for not much money. Not sure what their current status is. EBay was the place but I read somewhere that they had disappeared. Maybe they are back. I'm on my phone so I can't easily search but if nobody else chimes in let me know and I'll root around and find it for you. If you haven't found Linamarket you are in for a real treat.

But as somebody already mentioned, it's available at several trusted dealers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
