ezyu2 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Hi, I am looking to buy the "Planet Ocean Big Size" with the orange bezel, however all the replicas I have found come with the metal bracelet. I really would like to get one with the plain, padded orange strap. I can't find a leather strap anywhere for this watch, and I don't want to pay too much! I really want a good quality, replica Omega orange leather strap. Please can someone recommend one to me? Thank you! ezyu2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezyu2 Posted January 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Thank you for you're reply. I can't do that as I would be spending $100 on the replica watch, then $430 for a gen strap! I think I am going to have to bite the bullet and put up with the bracelet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastrmindalliance Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 You can buy the correct rep leather strap (and both colour rubber straps as well) from our dealers. I've got one coming even though I've heard the rep leather straps are, umm, crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I've gotten the second generation orange strap from Josh.. th updated strap works well and no spacing from the lugs like the first one made.. See here>UPO Strap as a suggestion .. I would order the SS and then the strap as an accessory.. during the summer you may want the SS at times..or you could just order the watch with the rubber strap..

lanikai Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Just wondering, do you have a UPO and if so how often do you change the straps LOL. Switching rubber or metal bands on the UPO is a royal PITA. I got mine with the metal bracelet, put it on rubber for a while, switched back to the metal for a day or two and it has been on rubber ever since. About the only thing that I think I would consider taking the rubber off for is the black rubber with orange stitch strap if I could find one for a reasonable price. About once every 2 years.. but now I have the Pumpkin on ss and the black on divers.. as it will stay for another 2 years.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezyu2 Posted January 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Thank you all for you're replies, I have spoken to Josh and he offers te crocodile orange strap, but I really want the plain orange strap. Which I have not been able to find, if you could recommend a dealer which is trusted; I would be extremely grateful. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amptor Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 You can order the gen strap from ofrei. Anything gen is going to cost a lot more than rep of course. Correct me if I am wrong too, but I heard that the gen leather strap is completely waterproof and of course a rep strap won't be. As in, you can go diving with the leather strap on I think.

In Australia, it seems you can't even buy the gen the with orange (plain) leather! Not a single AD in my city could get one, had seen one, or even knew what i what talking bout until I pointed it out in THEIR OWN catalogue. One even tried telling me it was actually croc but you couldn't see the grain in the pic. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
