Has anyone tried this deployant band combo?

May not be replica but rather generic buckle with Omega stamped on it. Looks like a great deal but would like to ask if anyone here has tried this:

Watch Strap Genuine Leather 20 mm Omega Black | eBay

I would seriously question the authenticity of either of these listings. The Spanish one also sells Patek Philippe band/ buckle combinations for $59!!!? Who sells PP bands and buckles that cheap....get real.

Your Cali Seller sells a ton of these Omega band/buckle combos as well. Too many for just a casual seller. Reminds me of those sellers peddling all those fake Panerai band/buckle combos from California on eBay.

Look at the quality of the band in the second set of pics....it is terrible. The "O" in Omega on the inside of the strap looks a completely different font than the "mega." And it is way too big to start with. The non buckle part if the strap is crooked and the stitching is terrible. Obvious fake.

If authenticity matters to you, I'd stay far away.

Yes, concerned about the clasp mainly. Anyone else? :)

I added an OEM 18K yellow gold Omega Deployant and Omega alligator band to my yellow gold SpeedMaster date, and I bought mine through Otto Frei.
