Unclestraps “fixed” the NTTD omega seamaster
I’ve been considering the NTTD seamaster for the past 2 years and as much as the Milanese bracelet has grown on me a little I have to admit it’s the one thing that’s stopped me from buying it.
Just saw these on uncle straps and I think they look great… the big decision is which one looks better the 3 or 5 link?
(I know some people will still say the Milanese… and I do like it, it just doesn’t feel tool watch enough for how I wear my watches)

Be aware of the material. If the strap is stainless steel it will likely damage the Titanium Grade 2 case of the watch due to different levels of hardness.

It’s titanium… and specific to the NTTD
I "vote" for the 3 link version. Looks cleaner, since there is already a lot going on with the watch itself.
I think a tool watch looks more coherent on the understated three link bracelet. Especially in titanium.
Definitely a big upgrade from the milanese. 👍

I completely agree! Nice to have options but the 3 link looks better to me too

Completely agree, I love the look on the 3 link, kinda wish omega did this on the normal seamaster as an option too
I think 3... 5 looks a little busy.

In that case it’s no problem. I’d take the 5 link bracelet. It might be more comfortable due to the smaller links.
Both options just look all kinds of wrong to me. I much prefer it on the Milanese (feels great to wear too IMO 👍🏼)
Doesn't look like the finish of either bracelet matches the watch very well. I'd throw a NATO on that beauty and call it good. 🙂
Those look incredible, wow, that completely redefines the NTTD! Normally I'm an O style guy, but I think the J style looks really nice
5! Closer to a needs of rice…
Both! For an 8k ish watch, another 350usd to get both would definitely be what I do
I like the mesh on mine. If they want to make a bracelet for this watch it needs to have omega dna not rolex dna. How about a titanium omega style strap. Flat link or 2254 style bracelet. Even a tapered version of the normal 300 bracelet. That would be a win.
YES……………to both !!
I also opted to not get the nttd because of the strap
Sorry. But the mesh is the best choice for this watch. Don’t like the mesh. Ok the watch isn’t for you.
Visually I prefer the 3 links because matches the vocation of the watch best.
But 5 links could be more comfortable and the satinised finish of the titanium keep it from being too dressy in my opinion. Hard to choose honestly
Beautiful watch. I vote 3 link.

The comment section says otherwise

I wonder how many of the comments are from people who actually wear the watch. I just feel that Omega got this one mostly right which includes the mesh strap. So with the world of watches out there to choose from why try to change a arrangement that is working. If it’s not broken why fix it ? just saying.

Because you only gave them 2 options. Do a poll and include the milanese.

There are a lot of people that can’t wear the Milanese because of the clasp… it’s big for a small wrist. I don’t have a problem with the Milanese and as I said it’s grown on me to some extent over the last couple of years… but I wonder how many people haven’t bought the watch because of that clasp.
Completely different discussion. But conclusion is the same. If it doesn’t work for you just move along.
Just curious, have you seen an example of this?
No and I heard it is titanium. So everything is fine.
Personally I don’t think either option works… mesh or fabric strap seems to fit the toolish nature of the watch better.
But if I had to choose, I’d go with the Jubilee-style.

Sorry, I'm confused. What did you "hear" is titanium? I thought that's what we were talking about, a titanium bracelet scratching a SS watch.
I’m usually a 5 link guy but I actually think the 3 link looks better

The watch is titanium he was saying to be careful if it’s a SS bracelet because it will scratch the watch… when I mentioned the strap was titanium that was resolved
