I’ve seen a sales post if 2254.50 seamaster with the same bracelet you intend to swap with. Try reaching out to exelonman.

 

The newer bracelets of that style won’t fit the older watch cases like yours, but Omega did make bracelets in that style for that case. For example, the bracelet from a 2531.80 would fit your 2264.50 without a problem. There is a specific model number for the bracelet but I can’t remember it and don’t have one handy.

The lug widths are the same (20mm) but the newer watches have thicker cases and beefier lugs which means the bracelet end links aren’t compatible. Also, I think the holes in the lugs are in slightly different locations.

Hope this helps. Not sure I’ve explained it well after a long travel day.

Very helpful, thank you!

 

Always good options available. Includes Forstner as well.

Which Milanese strap specifically is that? Model link if you could. Thanks, looks great

 

I have mine on a Forstner 1450. They sell different end links for different generations of watch.

 

The watch band on the top pic fits the previous seamaster version perfectly, I have both bracelets, and switch them back and forth a bit.
and, as stated by others above, it will not work with the current version.

 

I believe you are looking for Omega bracelet 1503/825 which will fit… just google it to see some pics

 

Thank you!

 

For something aftermarket, Forstner for sure.

 

Strapcode (Miltat) makes a couple of options.

 

Wanted your guys opinion. I got a seamaster on the rubber strap and want a steel bracelet. I don’t want to spend $500-800 on the oem. I’m considering one of these three

Forstner Flat Link
An eBay Replica of OEM ($45 or $300)

Leaning toward the replica or the president.

My opinion: as close to OEM as you can, maybe go with the expensive replica.
Source: I love my Seamaster steel bracelet! I was expecting to hate it (design, weight, etc) and swap straight away for the rubber strap. End result, the rubber strap was worn for like a couple of hours and now rests in my drawer forever

 

The old mesh bracelets are still available and fairly popular.

 

Do you know what particular bracelet that one is? I was actually looking for the exact same setup pictured. I love the OEM flat-link that came with mine, but I’d like to get a quality mesh bracelet that feels good and be able to trust the clasp (my biggest fear with replicas).

 

Can anyone confirm that bracelet 1515/816 will fit my SMP 2264.50? It appears to be a more updated version of bracelet 1503/825?

 

If the 1515/816 is the bracelet for the non-wave ceramic Seamaster then it will fit. Years ago I had a 2264.50 and put that exact bracelet on it. It fit like it was made for the watch. I personally liked the screwed links and clasp better than the speedy style on the 2264.

My only regret is that I sold the 2264.50, I think I originally bought it for like $1000.

 

I believe it will, since that came on the SMP ceramic non-wave dial watches if I am not mistaken, which are pre-2018. My understanding is that anything made for a pre-2018 Seamaster will fit the 2264 case, and that is how Forstner distinguishes which of their offerings fits which watches.

 

I went with the forsnter flat link. Should be here tomorrow!
