Re: GMT strap
In Response To: GMT strap ()

You can order direct from Omega Custoemr Service. In the USA thats 800-456-5354.

Be careful of other sellers--and get prices quotes from several sources before you buy. We have uncovered a bizzare disconnect on the pricing of some of the rubber straps and clasps.

Some reputable sources are oddly quoting 'official' Omega retail prices as much as $60-100 higher for both the clasp and the strap than what Omega Customer Service sells them for. I think Omega dropped the prices significantly a year or two ago. But many dealers are operating off outdated price lists for these accessories.

So you might end up paying a hell of a lot more for the exact same thing if you are not careful.
