    Not fake read the description. Real buckles cheap straps.

    I've been reporting this D bag and one in the US for awhile. Charging 200 for a crap omega buckle and cheap 2 dollar Nato.

    Ebay is allowing it for now.

    Are you sure that the buckles are genuine? Vintage 20mm Omega buckles aren't commonly available.

    I tried that with eBay. I'll try again, problem is not enough room to explain when you report.

    I agree, it really is annoying. I just wondered why you thought that the buckles were "real"?

    I agree that they are there physically :D

    Benefit of the doubt... some looked wonky and I reported the buckle as fake on the obvious ones... still a scam if the buckle is real. 200 for a buckle and cheapest NATO I've ever seen. You could see loose threads.

    Hi. Are the original Omega NATOs of a vastly superior quality to non branded ones?

    Yes very. And have different proportions, the buckle is opposite the watch not on the side.
    Are they worth the extra money from a 40 dollar one??? But they are vastly better then a sub $29 one.

    I think those buckles are fake. Acierinox is not one word.

    They do that all the time. Especially with the gray/black "Bond" NATOs.
