Try the Omega at Pavilion, they usually have some parts to sell there.

Thanks takashi/dennis

Just called them.. No luck. Btw they say I can opt for a rubber strap (incl buckle) which cost Rm1300!!!!!  Almost fainted.

Pegang pun pegang sajalah dulu.

Thanks

hey mate, I enquire a quote before from LVMH for my Carrera's S/S bracelet with buckle, been quoted at sgd 500+ so is equv to RM 1200.. and for your case i learn tat what is premium rubber strap.. Means rubber = or > stainless steel... 

I knew both is different brand & design and cant compare in this manner but I just little bit shocked..
FYI - my Sinn rubber strap only cost me Euro 30 a pair (w/o buckle)...

You can always but my gently used Omega buckle and put it on a aftermarket strap.
Look in the for sale section, my post is there.

At least yours come with BOTH strap and buckle ... the Glashutte croc strap is RM1600 without the buckle and the Blancpain buckle without bracelet costs RM1100!

CK, MY RSC is charging RM 175 for verification (btw SG RSC is charging sgd 75)?? Do they give u any pouch after verification like what SG RSC did??

Never use them before, that's the quote over the phone.

Hi Dennis

Rm1200 for Stainless steel is still "acceptable" lah as its last forever but premium rubber or not it is still going to wear out soon. EU30 only for SINN?? Hmm... wonder can use or not on the Seamaster. Don't mind having it as spare. Can get Takashi's buckle.

Anyway, I have ordered the link already and will arrive in 4 weeks time. Cost Rm85 + Rm20 labour to put it in. Meantime, can only stare at the watch only.


Peanut,

Wow... but then its Croc Skin wor. Some more those are high end watches. Must be lor. Actually the Omega strap cost Rm500 but the buckle is Rm800.


Takashi

Thanks for the lead. Found the trade but will kiv first as I have already ordered the link. If I can find any other rubber strap that I can use, then I will get the buckle from you.

Cheers

The seller should have included the extra unused links with the watch.

Hi Darren

Welcome.

Thats great. Fyi, I have already ordered the link but I sure hope to have the box and papers. Meantime, I quite keen in the Firemen 2 but not at that price lah. Silght reduction will def see me snacthing it up. Also, if the deal is on, the dealing method will be similar i.e. meeting at Service center (Ball Malaysia) for verification and COD when everything checks out OK.

Thanks
