Re: Rubber band for seamaster midsize? *LINK* *PIC*

: Ok, so where can I order an omega rubber strap?

: leads there? Thanks

Otto Frei sells them online at the link below. The only thing you will need to confirm is the strap size, but I believe it is 20mm just like the ones used on the full-size model. Hopefully someone else on here can confirm this. If not, any AD can take a quick check for you.

Also, be advised that the new mid-size co-axial Bond SMP coming out this fall will use a diferent type of rubber strap. It will have white stitching and look like leather from a distance. A picture is below.

As for used models, if you don't like ebay you can check out the sales corner at www.timezone.com, the sales forum at www.watchuseek.com, and the trading post at www.watchnet.com.

Good luck,
John
