It's the NASA issue Kevlar strap.

Otto Frei had some a while back for around 300 I believe, without a clasp.

I used a different source though and was able to get 2 of them plus OEM buckles but it wasn't easy. My AD told me that omega had 3 available when he contacted them about it.

Two years ago, I bought my gf her first Omega. Last week, I get her an AP...



I imagine both will get fair amount of wear, except now the Omega will significantly reduce the Seiko's wrist time.

The watch that started it all for me! Back from the spa last week. That was the first time I ever had it serviced since I bought it in 1998. Still brings a smile to my face.

Marc....True , but the Accutron was one of the watches that Omega beat to become Flight Qualified by Nasa. So it kind of fits on the Omega thread.....of course this is my humble opinion.

Must have stung. Name a watch the "Astronaut" and then have NASA turn you down.

Congrats
