路Hi folks,
Resurrecting this thread to see if anyone with a straight-ahead Speedy Pro has performed this mod to the bracelet? If so, I'd love to see a picture of what it looks like on-wrist (and possibly including your wrist size).
Cheers!

路The OB not only ordered the clasp and endlinks for my speedy, but they installed them as well. No void to warrenty and no games from the boutique. Great service and a great company.

路So I called the OB today to see about doing the same mod on my 3594.50. Apparently the word is out. Omega sent an email to it's OBs saying it frowns on doing this. They can still order you the parts, but will not install them per "head office".

路Its easy enough to fit. I fitted a titanium clasp bought from ebay for my xl PO 2016 and fitted perfectly. No issues whatsoever. Maybe Omega needs to think about improving its watches by installing them automatically!

路So just be be absolutely sure, if I wanted to do this to my 45.5 PO 8500, I would need order the 117STZ001154 clasp and I would NOT need to order any end links, right? Based on what I鈥檝e read here, it seems to be the case. It wasn鈥檛 entirely clear for the 45.5 (or maybe I missed something) Thanks for any help

If I recall correctly, I was able to screw the Ti version (117TIZ001151) of the clasp directly to my Planet Ocean 9300 45.5mm watch bracelet, without any extra links, but for my 42mm Ti Planet Ocean 8500 I think I also needed the clasp-links (or saddle-links) from the Ti MC300.
I'll check my records, but I'm 99.3% sure this is right.

That鈥檚 interesting, I didn鈥檛 realize the PO bracelet changed from the 8500 to the 9300. Maybe I should just order the links to be safe.... thanks for your comment

路I think, and someone correct me here, that the MC300 has 21mm lugs and the bracelet tapers to 20mm to mate the 1154 clasp, while the 9300 has 22mm lugs and the bracelet also tapers to 20mm, but the Planet Ocean 8500 has 20mm lugs and the bracelet tapers to 18mm.

路Well my 45.5mm 8500 has the same bracelet dimensions as your 9300. 22 tapering to 20. But maybe the bracelet design changed between generations, and maybe that鈥檚 why the 8500 needs extra links to accommodate the adjustable clasp. Although, they look pretty similar to me

But I said my Planet Ocean was a 42mm, that's why it's different.

路Oh, did you use the same clasp for both watches? I just assumed the 42 would be put on a smaller clasp. If they are the same clasp, then it makes sense for the 42 to require extra links. So I think i will be fine with just ordering the clasp. Thanks

Here's a link to where myself and a few others used the 1154 clasp. It works fine without end links. I'm sure the titanium version will be the same.
