Most of you probably know that Seth is a huge Omega fan, as well as being a very generous guy and a true mensch.
When I got my new Aqua Terra about a month ago he sent me a brand new black OEM Rubber Strap and yesterday he sent me the OEM Deployant Clasp to go with it, also new. I mean, c’mon, who does that?
Well, Seth does. Thank you brother, you’re one of a kind.
I couldn’t wait to strap it on so here are the pics.

Looks awesome, Angelo! Love how it looks "integrated" but it's not. And the 8900 is quite the caliber from what I have read. It's a great watch and it looks great on you.

Seth, you're a super great human.

True class act in any league!

What a nice gesture. Looks great!

He is definitely a class act. Omega makes fantastic rubber straps. I am looking for a used bracelet for my 42mm 300m for occasional use (the boutique charges $800 for the bracelet). That said, I love it on the factory rubber strap. It's so darn comfy.

Looks fabulous! Is it installed with the 6 & 12 ends reversed? I think the clasp should open downward.

Now you’ve got me thinking. Did I put it on wrong?
I looked up a video on YouTube and followed the instructions as best I could.

That's awesome

acarlos33 · 22 October 2019, 02:21 PM

I'm currently on the hunt for this. Great piece! Looks even better every time I look at it.

Are you wearing it on the right hand? That could be why it looks to be reversed.

Yes. I’ve always worn my watches on my right wrist.

Great watch and strap!

Will733 · 22 October 2019, 03:56 PM

Nice strap! Kind of want a rubber one now too..

Like others mentioned though, you’ve got the long end with clasp coming from the bottom at 6 instead of top at 12. Maybe if the watch slides over or you’re banging the clasp too much, might be worth changing the ends

You guys were right. I had the strap backwards.
Now it’s in the correct position.

Looks great and has an even greater back story.
Another reason why I love this forum.
