Help with Omega watch strap

Hi,

I bought this Omega watch about a year ago, and I haven't worn it because the strap is too small and the task for navigating the technicalities to find a new strap has been intimidating. My goal is either to add on authentic links to match the size of my wrist, OR fit it with a NASA JB Champion band. Could anyone confirm the 19MM NASA band (pic attached) would fit this watch?


I've attached a picture of my watch, and here is the listing description (translated from Japanese):


168.022 Seamaster Cal.565 Date Automatic Winding Men's 761994

There should be markings on the clasp of your bracelet which can be used to look for extra links or possibly purchase a complete bracelet which is longer.

WARNING always check the bracelet length before purchasing a watch, particularly from Asia.

I suspect that is an 1125 bracelet, probably with 560 endlinks.

Regarding the JBC bracelet, you need to know the width of the ends, so ask the seller. I believe your watch is a 168.022 and takes a 19mm bracelet. If that bracelet has 19mm ends, then it will fit. But be warned that the ends are not made to fit snugly against the case.

Yes on the bracelet 1125 is engraved. What does "560 endlinks" mean and how can I confirm this?

These are the pieces which attach the bracelet to the case.
