    Members, i,ve just purchased the above automatic cal 565 watch with a corfam strap. Looking on a well known auction website, there seems to be a surplus of supposedly NOS stainless steel bracelets up for sale.

    Are these genuine or fakes please?

    What sould the Omega serial number be for these bracelets anyway?

    Cheers, Paul

    As a follow up to this topic, can anyone recommend a decent tool for changing the strap on a Dynamic Geneve ?

    Thanks

    That's very nice. But I assume it isn't commercially available :whistling:

    Anyone else ?

    Any decent adjustable case back wrench will do the trick, preferable on with three points. This is a Swiss made JAXA, probably the best on the market, knockoffs can be found cheaply on eBay and should be fine for the casual user.

    I have one of these, works very well too. LG case opener, made in USA and considered the best by some.
