Hi All
Been ages since I've been on here, I'm not a collector or true watch fan \ aficionado, I just like what Omega brings to the table.

Anyways...
I have a Planet Ocean GMT in SS with Black dial and Bezel (The version with the earlier movement not the new Master Chronometer release).

Worn mostly for work and has seen little service \ usage comparatively especially with corona when for the past 3 years we have all been home working so it has been boxed with no wrist time over that period at all !).
Fired it up last night and will see how it goes (Omega Southampton tell me -1s - +6s per day are their tolerances although id be miffed if it were gaining that much !!)

Anyways now in a new job and and thinking about a different strap.
Looking on Omegas site they never had any rubber straps i liked (I prefer the "Buckle and Clasp type").
Some nice NATO type straps tho.
Specifically the Black Strap and Orange stitching and the Leather and Denim strap.

Does anyone have pics of a similar watch with straps like these or have any other thoughts [Is the PO too chunky for NATO type straps etc ..?)

Thoughts are welcome guys

Cheers will check it out.
Do you guys often add a Non-Omega issued strap then ..?

BTW are there any recommendable service agents that might not have the Omega Badge on the door but are perfectly competent to service an Omega (Considering its out of Warranty anyway).
I'm not tight but a charge of 拢690 to open and service a watch which to me seems perfectly ok is somewhat rich. !!!

This could be a good option. It's made for the current gen 43.5 with 21mm lugs. Fairly certain it will fit, as I have this strap in gray, as well as the blue strap from the good planet GMT (your generation PO) and they both fit my current model.

Hi All

Decided to go with an ARTEM strap with an RM Clasp.
Just about to order.

Anyone have experience on the total they were charged for tax and import ..?
