I got mine loose too. Directly from Omega.
Interesting, there might be a difference between your location. .... All straps I bought through the OMEGA EU website got in a red travel box.
Also ordered a beige (nice with Trilogy's ) military green and grey.
IMO There really is a difference between the multi coloured (polyamide) and single color ones (polyester)
I guess this travel box is only for online orders. I bought mine from an OB and I just got the strap.
For online orders in the US they even add the strap changing tool for free in EU you need to pay extra 10 euros if you want it..... 🙁

Why is the bottom keeper so close to the watch? Shouldn't the distance of the top and bottom keeper be equal? In other words shouldnt the watch be in the middle?
When you actually place the strap on your wrist, it pulls the bottom keeper down so that the watch does sit centered.
If you center the watch before putting it on your wrist you'll notice that the watch rides too close to the top keeper.
