It’s not alligator, but a waterproofed leather with an alligator grain. If you look at the Omega site, it says “leather” for the material, not alligator.
People always act like leather will fall apart if exposed to even a minor bit of water. I had a pair of leather Red Wings I wore for about 20 years in snow, mud, and rain and never had a problem with the leather — and I didn’t reproof them as much as I should. Only reason I got rid of them was because by feet grew half a size as a got older and they wouldn’t fit right anymore!
