Decided to get the gen strap. It is a definite improvement. The strap cost $180 at my local Omega Boutique. The buckle would have been an extra $50. I decided to use the Omega buckle that came with the cheaper Nato strap. Looks just as good, and only I know it's not a real buckle, or watch .

You'll not regret it, got a gen NATO too. Really finishes it off a treat [emoji106]

Actually it does, it comes with curved bars with the fitted NATO and a little Omega bag of straight springbars for the bracelet

Major flaw is the myota 8215 . If anyone asks to look at your watch that knows about watches they will see the stutter. Also non hacking is a complete give away..

Interesting information, thanks, since usually a watch case made for straight springbars would not be able to properly hold a strap with curved springbars because that would cause too much of a gap between strap and case, so the spectre strap must be different from usual straps as well.

I highly recommend PhenomeNATO, they're made from the same material as the Omega, but cost a fraction of the Omega price.

Wow, this looks like a really good quality strap. Thanks for the recommendation, I just ordered one. I'll let you know what I think after receiving it and compare it to the gen.

Hey guys, my watch is running ~12 seconds fast and I'd like to adjust it. Where is the adjustment for the regulator? I've drawn an arrow to where I think it is, but it also looks like a cosmetic plate too. I'd hate to attempt to move it and then just find out it's a piece that's glued on and have it snap off. Is this the regulator? Where the red arrow is. I own a timegrapher so I'll be able to accurately measure it.

+1 I just received my Phenome NATO in 22mm, and I am impressed with the quality! Maybe not quite gen, but for less than 1/4 of the price it easily beats any other aftermarket NATO. I took photos comparing the Phenome, InTime, and Pheonix straps:

Nice pics. I just received mine too:



It definitely feels very similar to the genuine, but the gray seems a bit darker green. Still don't regret spending the $180 though . I would recommend getting the genuine for this watch. Or a nice leather nato, as someone here mentioned earlier. I'm looking forward to trying this out someday. Anyone recommend a good leather nato one?

man I'm still waiting for mine...
have you tried fitting the phenomenato on the spectre rep? it's lug width is like 21.24mm or something and the strap I assume you have 22mm?
