This is clearly not working so let's try this another way....
I am contemplating purchasing an Omega Speedmaster Professional model number 311.30.42.30.01.005 (as in the newer version of 3570.50) with the steel bracelet.
I was thinking that it would be nice to have a leather band to switch to if I wanted. So I was curious as to what leather band and clasp was used on model number 311.33.42.30.01.001 (as in the new version of 3870.50.31)
I was able to deduce from this webpage (
http://www.ofrei.com/page749.html) that the stock leather band is model number 98000008 that is 20mm at the lugs and 16mm at the clasp. Ofrei says it uses the clasp model number 9452-1613 (16mm). HOWEVER, NOWHERE on the site does it actually sell that model number clasp.
It does sell however model number 9452-1813 (
http://www.ofrei.com/page573.html) which appears to be the same as the 9452-1613 except in 18mm. Additionally, most of the Hirsch straps are 20mm to 18mm instead of 20mm to 16mm so this might work out fine and be the preferred workaround.
That being said, I'm assuming I can't be the first to realize this as there has to be someone out there that needed a replacement 20mm to 18mm leather band for his 311.33.42.30.01.001 (as in the new version of 3870.50.31) model speedmaster????
Am I missing something? Forgive my noobness.
