Speedmaster '57 clasp on 321 bracelet

I saw someone comment on YT video at some point that alluded to this being possible.

So stopped by my Omega AD this past weekend to have a look, take some measurements and actually try this out.

Of course I'm interested because the '57 clasp has push button quick adjust functionality.

And turns out - it will work! Slightly larger clasp but otherwise looks exactly like the 321 clasp. They're currently trying to find the part number and will then order. Swatch group had issues with their ordering system for the last few weeks but sounds like things have come back online recently.

If anyone else is interested, I'll circle back with the part number.

To be clear, this isn't a half measure like some were doing with the 3861 and Chronoscope clasp. It's a direct swap and the only caveat is the '57 clasp is slightly larger.

Agree! I typically don’t even consider watches without a quick adjust because of how my wrist swells. But the 321 is special. And if this works as tested it’ll be damn perfect!

Well luckily I could get a very good fit of the 321 bracelet. But it's still to have a quick adjust in place.

Interesting information

Does the quick adjust clasp provide for about 2-3 mm of adjustment?

I’m not 100% sure I’d do it to mine as I just love the clasp profile and the beauty of how it integrates into the bracelet. That said, I do wish it had some on the fly adjustment.
