Omega Aqua Terra 150M Bracelet Options / End Links

Hi all,

Last year, I purchased an Aqua Terra 38 mm on a rubber strap (ref. 220.12.38.20.02.001), and I’m now looking into the possibility of fitting it with a bracelet. Unfortunately, I’ve found it quite difficult to source an original Omega bracelet for this specific model - even on eBay they seem to be fairly rare.

I recently managed to pick up a bracelet from the Aqua Terra Shades model. As far as I understand, it uses different end links than those required for my watch. That’s not a major issue, as I got it at a very good price and could always resell it. However, before going down that route, I wanted to ask: would it make sense - or would it even be possible - to source the correct end links for my watch and swap them onto this bracelet in order to fit it to my AT? It feels a bit Frankenstein-ish, but perhaps it’s doable.

Finally, do you have any tips on where to source an original bracelet that would fit my watch?

Thanks very much for your time and suggestions.

Kind regards,
xenophil

The end links/OEM bracelet can be ordered at the Omega boutique or AD, just tell them you want what's on ref 220.10.38.20.02.001.

I doubt the end links for that bracelet with pair with the shades bracelet.

I assume you don't have the Shades bracelet in hand yet?

First, I would try it with your AT. If the Shades end links don't fit, you can order just the end links for your AT from any AD or boutique. As long as the middle link of the Shades bracelet is 10mm wide, it will work with the end links for the non-Shades AT's.

If the Shades middle link is NOT 10mm then it will not fit the AT end links.

Thank you very much for the insights! I contacted my local boutique and hope to get a quote from them next week. 😀
