Omega Seamaster Ref 21230416101001

Hi

My daily watch and favourite (as it was a wedding gift) is my Omega Seamaster Ref 212304161001. I hate the bracelet though and seen some lovely Omega’s with a black rubber strap with a clasp.

I am struggling to find anything for my watch. Ideally I would like Black or Orange and would prefer Omega rather than 3rd party.

Any help, all the straps on the Omega site say not compatible?

I am in the UK, London in a week staying around Tottenham Court Road. I see there is an Omega Boutique on Regent Street (we don’t have one where I live), is it worth popping in there. Only issue is I am only in the UK for less than 48 hours so would want something in stock.

Try the boutique but in my experience they don't carry many straps and have to order them in.

I don't know your particular model, but I bought a Seamaster Planet Ocean Good Planet (what a mouthful) some while ago. It came on a steel bracelet which I really didn't like - so I changed to an Omega blue rubber strap and buckle which suits it. But it wasn't cheap - I think over £400 for strap and buckle.

I just got one from AliExpress for my Planet Ocean, fitted well, took the wear for the summer and was peanuts.

Back on the bracelet now.

I would say that they will have 20mm Omega strap and a deployant clasp will fit, I would certainly go to the boutique and check.

Thanks. will go in a see what’s what. Hoping O don’t come out with another watch!!

Lovely Planet Oceans. above.

Omega aren't very good at bracelets IMO, they look better on the integrated straps they do, fingers crossed for you, failing that any number of aftermarket 20mm straps will fit and you can pair them with an Omega deployant clasp (which is much better than a simple tang buckle)

Zealande do an aftermarket rubber strap.
Uncle Seiko do an aftermarket metal bracelet.
But… a genuine Omega Speedmaster bracelet fits if that’s more your thing.

I've got a Titanium Planet Ocean with the Titanium bracelet and fancied a rubber strap for a change but wasn't prepared to pay £100s for it.

I bought this on ebay (even has an Omega logo on the clasp), decent quality, looks as good as the genuine IMHO;



Actually bought 2, one with the orange sides and one without, here's the clasp which, even though it's SS it has a brushed Titanium look;







Back on the Ti now though;
