In this insightful post, oyster case delves into the distinctive design language of a specific Omega model, challenging initial perceptions that likened its case to Seiko or Zenith Defy. By experimenting with various strap options, oyster case meticulously isolates the case head, revealing its inherent Omega aesthetic. This exploration highlights how strap choices can dramatically alter a watch's perceived design and underscore its true brand identity.
would be my preference for this model, ploprof style (your first pic looks like a milanese, could be wrong though!).
Shark mesh and textile straps. I suspect the biggest point of contention for many will be the PCL in the bracelet . Have to see it in the metal, but not loving the bracelet and clasp design language from the pics
Stainless Steel Mesh
PCL, case top chamfers, clasp. Some design elements give strong seiko vibes. The laser etching on the case back is a disgrace, I could live with it but such a downgrade from the original PO.
Although not the laser etching but my feelings on that are much less pronounced than yours π
Now it looks the part. Black bezel on a black nato would be my choice.
