To owners of the NTTD watch, have you tried opening the caseback to get a glimpse of the movement? Just curious.. 馃槣

For anyone who owns this watch, does the bracelet micro adjust or are the holes in the bracelet the adjustment? I have read some people say that it was not fitting well, either too tight or too loose.

Looks like you can order this piece online directly from Omega. Has anyone tried this?

It is just the bracelet holes, no micro-adjustment. I definitely fit in the middle of two, with the one I wear slightly too lose. Mercifully, the lightweight nature of the watch prevents it from flopping around too much. I short bracelet is coming out later - not sure how it will fit.

Is this confirmed? Would be very interested in one as the included bracelet gets a bit bulky if set for smaller wrists.

This is interesting. How do they size the mesh bracelet?

Likewise. Haven't even heard a whisper about it from Omega which raises my doubts.

Demonstrated here: (at 1:49)
I thought it was rather obvious. When i first saw the clasp a few months ago when the watch was unveiled, it looked pretty clear. Works the same way as any other deployant clasp works on leather or rubber strap. If you've used deployant clasp on leather straps, then this is pretty similar.

May I ask what strap this is? I really like the combination with the new Bond watch. It does not seem to be the Omega polyester NATO strap...

Didn鈥檛 heard something about a shorter bracelet for this watch and I鈥檓 in regularly communication with the manager of my OB. And I guess the market for this will be to small. In my experience, the Band will fit wrists from 15,5cm to 21,5cm in 1cm steps per hole. But I agree, a micro-adjustment in between these 1cm steps would be awesome.

They didn鈥檛 size the mesh by make it smaller, they just adjust it to the right hole to fit your wrist size. Maybe they cut this service for the moment, because less people are working...

That鈥檚 the Aged Lume Strap from the Minimalist Series from The Watch Steward. I ordered a bunch in different colors - very comfortable to wear.

Have you measured the thickness of the case? Curious how thin it is when compared to the current SMP models since Omega mentioned that this titanium case is thinner.

Just what one of my dealers told me. I can't say how authentic it is. You still can't even order the NATO if you have an existing bracelet yet.

Yes, there will be three sizes, so regular, short, and long.

They are listed for the bracelet but nothing is shown as available, and unfortunately no lengths are given.

Cheers, Al

No, I haven鈥檛 until now, as I didn鈥檛 have a proper tool to measure that exactly. fratellowatches.com says in there review it鈥檚 12,99m compared to the regular 13,56mm. With my ruler it鈥檚 more like 12mm incl. the domed sapphire, but I guess that鈥檚 not accurate enough for that.

Now that鈥檚 interesting! As I use hole 3 and 4 (counting from the smallest hole), I will have a look at the small bracelet when it鈥檚 available.

Thank you! And yes, they are super comfy, well made und good looking 馃槑
