    Where can I find original Omega straps?

    Hi,

    I'm wondering where I can find OEM Omega straps?

    Saw a couple on ofrei.com but they can't ship leather products outside the US...

    Cousins in the UK? Or any Omega dealer should be able to order them.

    I've ordered a tag strap from here, decent price and good to deal with.

    Watchretail didn't have what I'm looking for.

    Another vote for Cousins. At least you know they are the genuine article.

    If ordering from Cousins remember to add VAT and postage to the price.

    I've noticed that their leather Omega straps have increased significantly in price over the last year :(.

    Cheers,

    Make that 228% Mike :shock:. Their Omega leather straps used to be £17.50 with buckles now they're £40 for exactly the same strap. Part of Omegas push to compete with the likes of Rolex I guess. Very bad news for us vintage fans though :(. I suppose we can consider ourselves lucky that the parts are still available though.

    Cheers,

    Gary

    Edited as my maths is sh!te

    Yes Nejo, sorry I didn't notice your location before

    Here's their website if you want to enquire about overseas shipping

    http://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog/4/166/1944.aspx

    They're a trade supplier so you have to register if you want to order anything. This also explains the VAT charge (17.5%).

    Cheers,

    Gary

    Phone the horses mouth at Bond St.

    Another option is to order from Ofrei and have it shipped within the US to TZ member who would then ship onto to you.

    Needs a friendly US TZ member and I am sure there are many but it is another option.

    The price of the $ at the moment doesn't make Ofrei the cheapest option,
    especially after you add TWO postal charges and $22 for the buckle that is not included.. :wink:
