Aqua Terra Master Co-Ax with aftermarket strap

In an effort to just use my new watch without worrying about scratches on the PCL's, I changed the band/deployant :)

The new band and the "tool".



And the outcome.



And finally some wrist shots.

Looks great!

Have you thought about picking up a brushed bracelet for it?

Great call, I think Omegas look so much better with leather straps than Rolex. Deff makes me want to get an Aqua Terra GMT with leather. :-)

After a few weeks using a strap, back to the bracelet. Feels like I have an entirely new watch. Can't wait till I receive my black croc band. :)

Just a $30 cow leather with alligator print from EBay. I'm expecting a $40 genuine crocodile leather soon. Will post pics when those arrive.

There are straps from a specific top rated seller on eBay that are made to fit the omega deployment perfectly. They even look like the omega oem straps. Available in many different colors.

I'm assuming you're using the one that fits the 18mm deployment.

Those straps look great and are very reasonably priced.

Very nice.

Great straps 2!

I like the idea of a strap for my AT, I'm just not sure what would look good on the Grey dial. Most likely stay with the bracelet.
