    Hi everyone

    Just a quick question I know that the speedmaster reduced version has a 18mm strap but against my better judgment I am thinking of putting mine on a nato strap and have been looking at the omega " spectre" grey & black bond NATO

    The smallest size omega does is 19mm would this fit ?

    Thanks

    I always like to match the watch's size and the width of the strap. It might look squeezed-in, if it will fit all-together.
    I would use your better judgement on this.

    By a cheap NATO first to see if you like it. I'm pretty sure the Omega one will bunch.

    Spend 8'dollars before you spend 150.

    Thanks again for the replies I went into the omega boutique and tried on a 19mm NATO it did fit

    However they did not have the bond strap in stock , the sales guy basically told me to not bother waiting to order one and buy one on amazon so fair play to them I was ready to put one on order

    So for the price of one omega OEM NATO I have purchased from a company called Zuludiver 3 natos and from another watch company 3 omega buckles

    Hey mark, what was the verdict on the 19mm on a Speedmaster Automatic? Did it fit well? I just got one and would love an original omega strap, but am concerned about the 18mm vs 19mm issue.

    Thanks!
