That part does not appear to be available as a separate piece - new clasp required.

Cheers, Al

from my research that matches what I've found but was worth a go

is this going to be compatable as different model number or is it for mid size or other?
thanks steve

Can this fit the new crSMP clasp?

@Archer are you sure omega doesn't sell that part separately anymore? In this tutorial the author lists the exact part number for the spring clip-

Pretty sure this little clip has been a known weak spot for the clasp for a while.

Are Al and I the only ones who read this thread? It's not the spring, it's the part I circled in a previous post.

Yes, you are the only ones on this post!

Jk, total brainfart as the page skipped a few posts when I web from portrait to landscape view on the phone. As others have said the bay is probably the best bet, specifically "for parts" listings to keep the expenditure down.

Thanks the clasp above sold already if it was compatible but will keep an eye out or just bite the bullet on new thanks

Part is nicknamed "mushroom" and not available from Omega or Cuzzins/Ofrei.

you can buy the ebay cheaop 1504/826 from that outfit in texas but you will need to glue the mushroom in as it is not a direct fit to your clasp...or you can swap the innerds from the ebay one as needed...thats what I wound up doing...better late than never.

I'm struggling to source

Well, there's your problem Steve - you're trying to "source" the part. Sourcing is VERY expensive and hard to do. How about you simply "look" and "buy" a new clasp and be done with it? Voila!!!

ps - does anyone else think that Longshot would be a good name for a band? 😜

No micro adjustment replacement that’s an upgrade?
