Re: Seamaster Straps.
In Response To: Seamaster Straps. *PIC* ()

Hi Martyn,

You have hit the brick wall I did when I tried getting a different strap for my omega in the UK. I talked to Omega direct they refused to sell direct, So I tried several dealers none too interested, in the end I threatend one that I would report them to Omega for not showing any interest in allowing me to order a strap thru them, This dealer allowed me to go thru their Dealer Catalogue, found the strap I wanted but I could not find the clasp, also this was on the weekend and they needed to phone Omega for a price!!! So in the end I gave up, I got in touch with David Moss who is selling the rubber straps and black shark skin Omega straps with the Steel 'America's Cup' Clasp on sales corner over at TimeZone.

if you need any more info, emai me.

regards,
Tarkan
