@omegaaddict I saw you selling the CK2998. Didn't bond with it huh? I actually thought about selling mine due to my wrist size (small wrist, like smaller watches in general) tho I LOVE the watch, but after putting the leather back on, I am in love with it again. I've since withdrawn the sale, I think I'll stick with the stock blue straps until I get bored (or get that 60th anniversary bracelet).

I love mine. Just was being opportunistic as the AD gave me access to another as well
Any ideas how much these are going for used.
The new gray and blue nato bond by Omega will look cool on this watch. (coming this summer)
Is that a new color combo? Do you have a picture or Omega site URL? I could only find the initial release of NATO straps including black/grey Bond, but not Blue/Grey.
that is the new color including 3 other colors. its not on the site no.
Hi guys, my first post here. I've been doing some research and a friendly guy named Kyle Reisz on facebook decided to give it a go. So removing the bracelet from his 60th anniversary Speedmaster and fitting it to his FOIS (same case as the ck2998). Unfortunately he found out the push pin holes don't match and there the gap between the case and the end link was around 1 mm. So if you can live with that, it's a good option. But it's not very pretty. A shame really, because it looks like a winner!
Just love this watch. It is truly a sleeper. Blue shell cordovan leather strap is my favorite.

When you say the push pin holes don't match, you meant there is also a gap between the curved part of watch case and end links?
