The Seamasters are as stunning as the Spectres. Mine from some batch 1 uses a 20mm NATO and it´s a perfect fit.
For those having a 21.5mm/20mm with the lugbar showing: all famous movie-stars use it like that, Connery, Brando etc., for whatever reason not the right size but a smaller one:) (at least they did up to the Year 2.000)

Will the TD's restock or V6 has stopped manufacturing them? Intime and Chazing both say they ship with a free bracelet.

I got mine about 2weeks ago from PT and I asked them for a bracelet after I had purchased the watch. It was a custom $20 add-on and it's very nice

Well I am looking for the bracelet since February :D . I was told that that the bracelet is not available for V2 (lug size 21.3 mm) of the watch anymore.

this is typical miyota
I don't know if it can be fixed with lubrication
Can't hear the gen movement at all.
Just an update for anyone still looking for a strap... It looks like Timefactors has finally added the "Bond" pattern to their range of "De-luxe" NATO straps.

This may be the "killer mod" for the V2 Spectre. About 80% the look and feel of the gen Omega strap for 1/10 of the cost. I own several of these straps in other colors and they definitely have the "seatbelt texture" look and feel of the gen strap. Tons of people on Gen forums have been ordering them to go with their gen Omegas. However, in my experience they're pretty stiff and do require some break in unlike the gen Omega which is buttery smooth right out of the gate. The hardware is obviously sterile, both keepers are fixed, and the buckle is larger, but it is brushed (like the gen Spectre NATO).

Unfortunately only available in 20mm or 22mm, so you either have a slight gap (Connery-style) or a little tight, depending on your preference.

The strap that I got from PT a few weeks ago is very soft.....a bit long, but very comfortable.

There is no Omega boutique where I live, and someone suggested several pages back to call the nearest one regarding the NATO strap. This worked, and they couldn't have been nicer! They even paid for the shipping. Just wanted to say thank you for this suggestion!! I believe it was scottb57 who suggested it. Thank you again.

Only bad part is I'll have the strap tomorrow, and still have to wait for the watch. Could be worse though.

Just wanted to post and say thanks for all the information here on the forum. I just purchased the watch from Intime, and quite excited to see the QC pics! I'll post pics when I get the watch!

About to pull the trigger on this beauty. Are there specific things I need to look for in the QC pics on this watch?

Anyone try the 22mm on the Spectre yet?

Over at Repgeek, a VIP member by the name of sacsha1 posted last May about a franken omega 300 spectre. This franken contain all the rep parts but the movement, which is GENUINE OMEGA 8500 movement, was sourced by him. http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?269649-Project-Completed-First-Franken-Omega-300-Spectre. It was a successful albeit a tricky project for him. Didn't get to ask him how much it costed him though nor how was he able to source a gen movement as I was forbidden to post even though I signed up on that site too.
