    Hi there friends!! i know nothing about Omega watches...

    i was out for a ramble yesterday and found this watch strap on the ground... unfortunately it was just the strap!

    i plan to look further in the area to see if perhaps the actual watch has been dropped... since i know nothing about this i was wondering if anyone could identify the strap? how old it is perhaps? anything at all... attached some images.. its a bit beat up

    thank you all!

    Completely fake, markings totally off on both buckle and strap, not even a good try.

    ooh... my first thought was fake simply because of the buckle.. couldn't find anything similar online, also might explain why no one came looking for it hmmm...

    The most obvious tell is this clamp thing holding the keeper together, the mark of a cheap, cheap strap, the equally clear issues are the buckle design and marking as well as the stampings on the strap itself.

    Also, to my modest knowledge, no Ω straps are marked "genuine leather".
