Are there any other ways of getting an Omega spring bar tool? I wanted one more just to fill out the empty space in my NTTD bag. The OB said they give them away for free, but they're always out whenever I swing by. Any other ways of getting one? I didn't see it listed on the official Omega website.

Your best bet would be eBay if you need the Omega branded one. There are plenty of other tools out there that are better such as Bergeon.

Check in the parts for sale section here on the site. You may have to search but I’d swear thee is one for sale in there. Might have been sold but was there for a while.

If you buy a strap directly from the Omega website, you can add the spring bar tool to your order for $10 during checkout (used to be free with every strap order)

Buy a strap online & add the tool to the order, return the strap for a refund & keep the tool 😉

I was at my OB once where I picked up a bracelet I had ordered. I asked if they had any of those old service cases (that looked like sunglass cases). They replied saying they had just ran out, but I could always order a nato strap online as it came with that case, return the strap and keep the case haha. I never did, I just thought it was funny advice.

I got mine for free at the OB, because I wanted to fill the empty space in the NTTD bag too. The watch didn't hang around long but I've still got the tool.

They said they give theirs out for free, but they're also always out. My local OB also just felt very snobby. As in spend money or GTFO vibes, so I feel like they prob wouldn't give me one unless I buy more. I use to go in there to look at new releases and it felt like I was getting shooed away. I normally just go to an AD closer to me. Best experience I had was in Chicago, way more welcoming, gave me a catalogue. Lots of conversation about the history of Omega.


Anyways, my wife was able to call omega and order it from them. $20 if anyone is curious.

For double the price of what they sell with straps online, is it at least the Bond spring bar tool?

The black w/ red text is the one they give away/supply with straps/comes with the Moonwatch big box set.... the black w/ gray text is what was bundled with the Seamaster Spectre box set, so that is more Bond-ish. There's also a silver spring bar tool w/ blue text that was bundled with the PO Pyeongchang LE and a wooden one from the 2017 Trilogy.

Ahh dang, didn't even know there were variants. Since the wife surprised me saying she figured it out, I wasn't going to complain.

Nashville OB has always treated me very well.
