Strap for Omega Seamaster Prof Chrono

Hi everyone,

I'm close to buying my next rep which will probably be this:

236981-11023.jpg

I'm thinking of replacing the bracelet (don't like bracelets) with this:

which is waterproof shark skin and comes in this lovely blue and with a 20mm lug fitting.

Firstly, am I correct in thinking that the 20mm is the right size for this watch?

Secondly, what do you guys reckon on how it will look?

and finally, should I go for a deployment clasp or not?

Apparently, you could buy a similar sharksin strap with the watch direct from Omega so It's pretty authentic.

1. Yes, 20mm lugs.

2. I think it will look [censored] awesome! The blue will totally complement the dial/bezel color. If it clashes (unlikely but possible) replace it for the same strap, but in dark brown. Sounds a weird combination, but trust me, it will work :thumbsupsmileyanim:

3. Deployment clasp or buckle... Entirely your choice there, all comes down to personal preferences... Are you someone who likes to just 'slap a watch on quick', or do you like to take time to make sure it's properly buckled on the right notch? Personally, for ease of operation, I prefer deployment clasps over buckles. Some watches, like the PO, I tollerate for having buckles, but, this Omega deployment clasp would look really sharp on that watch:

TeeJay, I need a deployment buckle for a leather strap for my Speedmaster Moonie. Do you know a good source for these with the omega markings?

The only source I know of, is Ofrei.com. That's where I got that image from. But. They are gen items, so gen prices. I really like the 2254.50 on rubber that Flav has in his sig, and oneday, I plan on owning the same combination. But. I'll likely buy a $50 rep of the watch, it amuses me that the strap/clasp will cost four times the amount of the watch :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Silix has the rep version of these. Double push button versions as well as non-push button versions.
