    Hi,

    wondering what changed between
    311.63.44.51.99.001 (attached) and
    311.63.44.51.99.002?
    Anybody able to shed a light?
    Thanks,
    Florian

    @thatonewatchdude Yes, that's what happened on DSotM, but my Meteorite has the deployant. Dealer might have changed the strap but I'd be surprised. Hmmm, will see if Omega is open today and ask.

    It really is. If they ever did Meteorite Moon Phase, I may be cruising for a divorce. Dear God.

    Ok, .002 seems to be pin buckle - why anybody would want to buy this is beyond me.

    One of the staff at the OB told me it is actually a touch more inexpensive to buy the pin buckle and then the deployment clasp strap separately. Of course at this price point - a couple hundred may not be much - but it was the route they recommend to go. This was about 2 months ago.

    Dirty, I know. Very hard to photograph the dial reflections properly.

    Because it is less expensive to invest in the tang buckle rather than the deployment clasp model and also oddly some people prefer over it as well.
