You could ask CW to put this strap
On that watch
Or just get an el cheapo FKM rubber from AliExpress. They are really good. Just get FKM and not silicone.

The CW C60 Trident Pro white dial on bracelet (got the rubber strap in @Beanna’s picture too) scratched this itch for me. It’s a great watch at a better size for me.
If you 'really' like the look especially, look at Heimdallr NTTD V2. Not a lot of $, Seiko mvnt. That way you will inexpensively know if you even like it, then disregard or aspire to your Grail watch. A lot of people hate on the microbrand market, but it is a great way to test out a certain style of size that you're not sure about without having to spend thousands to find out you might have made a mistake. Plus, for the most part, they're overly reliable using Seiko mvmts.
Seiko King Samaria for about $400
This is one of my "someday" watches
Are you sure finding an alternative and compromising on what you really want is what you want to do? I would start saving to buy the Omega one day; will make the purchase even sweeter.
Don’t spent money on a watch that looks like the one you want. Just safe the money and reach the Omega sooner.
If you buy less, you may end up buying twice, just save up for it. And please, do not charge it.
