    Hi guys,

    Are there any bracelet options that would fit the NTTD?
    All the, for example, Forstner bands for SM300m state that it would not fit the NTTD, is there a bracelet that would fit?
    What about curved rubber bands, any 100% fits out there?

    Wow, many thanks, that looks fantastic. Do you have any photos with it mounted on the watch?

    np. for the price its very nice. and quite comfortable. Im not sure if the build is as good as the Omega version, but its also significantly more expensive

    Are you asking for metal bracelets for NTTD 300M? It comes with a milanese strap, or can be purchased from Omega themselves. They have it in Ti and in steel. I believe the NTTD is a titanium watch so therefore I believe you do not want to have a stainless steel bracelet as that will scratch up the watch. Why Ti watches have Ti bracelets, along with the weight being consistent.

    Thanks mate, I was aware of that, but got a great advice on titanium mesh, since original Ti mesh leaves an ugly gap as I have small wrists. :)

    Did you try on the smaller size? I believe they have a reg and small size. Let me know how it goes, it seems most mesh strap have that issue with wrists smaller than 18cm/7inch.

    I have still not tried the shorter version, waiting to get one from Omega…but trying this generic one made me forget I am waiting :) By the way it is so much softer than the one from Omega, not nearly as stiff.

    It's a shame that Omega didn't design the NTTD bracelet better. It's so beautiful to look at, but its wearability is flawed for some smaller wrists.

    One of the main issues is that it doesn't articulate enough around the holes. This is what causes the "gap", since the stiffness in that area makes the sides bulge out. But there is a work around: manually breaking in the area around the holes (by bending the bracelet, little by little over time) will allow that area to flex more & more. This will then allow the bracelet to more naturally wrap around the contour of one's wrist, with less of a bulge or gap.

    I feel like a broken record, as I've posted about this a number of times. But the combination of the shorter size bracelet, plus manually breaking-in the bracelet to flex a lot more around the holes, was the solution for me. It's now super comfy with a nice fit.

    I know they have had past releases of the Seamaster 300m on titanium. Maybe find out which models they are and inquire about those bracelets with Omega or Omega AD/Boutique. May be able to buy it by it self. Example https://www.omegawatches.com/media/pdf/watches/product-sheet/us/en-us/21060422099001-en-us.pdf

    Would be very curious to hear how you get along with the small and how it compares to your current aftermarket milanese strap option once you have the time to test them out. :)

    They have had a few, the issue is what fits, and the color
    The current gold/titanium color matches but jt doesn’t fit

    I can inquire though

    maybe custom

    How big is your wrist? Do you have any wristshots how it fits now? It’s comforting to hear that there is indeed a light at the end of the tunnel!

    A little under 6.7 inches or 17 cm. Here's a recent wrist shot.
