    The zero lots of people put at the beginning of part numbers is actually an O. O for Omega that the OB uses in their computer

    I got a call the other day from the OB and it seems the end links have to come from Switzerland or are on backorder so they estimated 2 to 3 weeks. I said good more time to solve other problems :)

    My Good Planet GMT tapers from 20mm to 18mm and I installed the 117STZ001159 on mine its for 20mm but it was a direct fit if you have screws and pins. I saw another guy that did it and let me see if I can find the link so I don't have to go take pictures. http://forums.watchuseek.com/f20/omega-planet-ocean-goodplanet-gmt-my-new-daily-watch-2210850.html if you read back a little in this thread you will see the 1154 clasp and 1159 i used are the same except for the divers extension on the 1159

    Just a quick update--I've bought the parts above and attached it to a 1159 clasp (divers version), then swapped in my 1503/825 links. Perfect fit, and feels great. I wish it had a few more adjustment spots (this one has 6), but as someone with a continuously adjusting wrist size, this thing is a lifesaver.

    Attached. Putting it on cold, I'll have it a bit tighter, then loosen it several notches once it sticks to the skin (after 5-10 minutes). I used to try dabbing water along my wrist to get bracelets to stick--no more need for that. There's nothing worse than a loose, floppy bracelet (except maybe one that's slightly too tight ;)).

    Ah, you're right. I'd better fix that. I must have spent more than 2 hours moving links around. I kept putting one half-link in and taking it out again, trying to get it just right. By the end of it, I had a few ruined tubes (center indent pushed out, no longer catching on pins).

    Looks good. You really kept that bezel in nice shape. Does that clasp feature a divers extension? Guessing it does--looks like it's the same size as mine.

    How long did it take for them to get it properly adjusted?

    Huh, neat. That makes a 4th adjustable clasp--wasn't aware of this one. A quick check says it's shorter than the 1154 clasp.

    If I understand correctly, you got the clasp and 2x endlinks for 125 pounds? That seems rather low. The clasp alone is like $120 USD, and the endlinks (with pin + 2x screws) are $45 each. I would have expected the cost for you to be closer to 175 pounds.

    Well that's a shame. I use my extension for fitting the watch over long sleeves sometimes--I'd rather have the flexibility of the extension than the 007 logo.
