Bought this watch today.
Watch itself looks authentic, tomorrow anyway will bring it to Swatch for diagnostic.
Upon coming home realized that clasp is not authentic in my opinion (am I right?).
The question is only the clasp is not original or the whole bracelet?
Link profiles look not as oval as original, little flat on the inner side which original doesn't have I think. And end links (closest to clasp) are not the original shape. Original has more triangle profile from what I've seen on pictures.
Number on clasp is 1502/284 which I think is not PO clasp and "M" in OMEGA on back side of the clasp near the 1502 number has different font from original. Also as you can see the inner side of the clasp is not even finished

Thanks. Yeah, looks like the links are different shape also... Damn
The rubber is a so obvious junk so I'm not even questioning it. It was an "extra" and price was good enough so I did not bother about the rubber. But the bracelet is a disappointment...

Came to Swatch service today, asked to check the watch, didn't say a word about the bracelet. After 3 minutes lady came out and asked did I know that the bracelet is not original.
So watch is authentic, bracelet is not.
Seller agreed to refund $350 for it. Considering that I already bought it for the pretty good price, that's fine

$680 full new bracelet from Omega.
