    hello everyone and thanks for letting me join your group .
    i have a 68 omega 120 seamaster , i love the watch but the buckle is really starting to annoy me ! does anyone know which would be the correct shape for my years ? the strap i have on is 16mm.
    any help would be brilliant as i would really like to get the correct one . or if anyone has one for sale .
    many thanks

    What is annoying you? The aesthetics, the "feel" on your wrist, what?

    Have you checked out the in-depth buckle post right above? 5th post from bottom in the "vintage" section, sticky threads.

    Given that the 120 was supplied on a tropic strap (at least according to a 1967 catalogue), that will dictate the buckle type I'd have thought. Did they even have an Omega signed buckle?

    i agree it did come with the tropic strap or i think a 1098 bracelet , to be honest i like a leather strap and just wanted to know what correct year genuine buckle would work with the leather strap , thanks for your input guys :)
